pictures of my new flatbed...

I finally got pictures of my new flatbed downloaded off of my camera. I have been waiting about 8 weeks to get it ordered and made by Gooseneck here in Bryan, Tx. I got the new flatbed after my mother-in-law backed into my truck (in her own driveway) and the insurance money covered the cost of the new bed plus I got to pocket enough to buy a very needed LP and VP44 that was going out. Thought y'all might like to see some pictures. I'm in the process of fabricating a mount for some different mudflaps, not to fond of the free advertising they put on the back of it. It says I can't post attachments on the option menu below, so you'll have to look in my gallery.

Why not just turn the mudflaps around backwards?

John, it set me back around 2300 installed. That is including a few extras like all LED lights, reciever hitch, and the two underbody toolboxes

Shovel, I still have my old, plain black flaps from my dually bed that I'm gonna use, so no extra money out of my pocket. Plus, I want to get them a little closer to the wheels to keep water and mud off of the back of my tail lights.

Thanks for attaching the pics Mod, appreciate it.

Good lookin' flat bed. Movin' the flaps back is a good idea. Will keep the back clean and make it look better.

That is a nice flat bed. I would like to have a dumping stakebed with easily removable stakes.

The bed is 8'6" wide, and 9' long. I thought the 10' long bed looked too long on just a regular chassis. There are some running around here locally but they sit on the older cab and chassis models that dodge used to sell.
