as i was taught growing up, "unibodys are for suckers"
this got me thinking.....
why is it that every light duty truck, 1 ton and under, no matter the make or model,
utilizes only sheet metal for beds?
its pretty useless to have a truck that you cant tie things down tightly in.
virtually every bed ive seen, is dented and scared due to people hauling things,
ratchet strapping things down.
so, my next major project will be to add some 2x2 or 2x3, 1/4" box tubing to the entire bed.
with tie down points.
i do some scrapping of metals, and picking up parts for projects.
but pulling home a 7.3T in the back of the bed, im going to need to break out the big guns.
i dont want to put a flat bed on this truck, i like having a bed.
im sure im not the only one that thinks this way.
can anyone post some pictures to see what they have done?
