    Congrats on 100k! Too bad that you couldn't make the tilt bed mechanism fit. I bet that truck could've made a really cool rig for delivering shipping containers to remote places for people wanting to build container homes, shops or just for storage. Trailers are a pain to maneuver when you go off the beaten path.

    Kevin's im proper welding attire reminded me of when I worked at a welding shop 50 years ago. We were fabbing a bed for a foresty truck. I was wearing a proper shirt for welding. I hadn't planned on the shirt gapping open around fat bellybutton. Didn't notice my welding sunburn until the next day.

  • @moman0166
    @moman0166 Год назад +1

    I am very impressed with how this bed fit on the truck. I was just thinking about making about 15 to 20 foot of the bed a hyd. dove tail. I know it would take lots of work but I would love to see that or make one truck into a Mobil Work Shop just for the the times you need about everything to work on a dozer. Kevin is one fine painter and his work needs to be recognized for the great love he puts into his work.

    Great transformation of an Army "workhouse" piece of equipment. It will make someone a real load hauler with all terrain capability. Really like the paint job.

    Why not make it like a rollback, tilt bed. Seemed to have the hydraulic cylinder in the bed? Then, leave the winches and put some rollers on that bed when it's tiled back to be able to winch up heavy equipment. The dual winches on the back (with some D-rings welded on the flat deck to keep cable close to deck) could have helped lower / retract larger monster ramps so that the angle of approach was greatly lessened.

    Are you thinking about putting a dump bed on one of these? I've seen a local contractor with one that they use as an offroad dumper. They have big float tires on the rear axles. Might also make a nice silage or grain truck 🤷‍♂️ I'll be interested to see what you come up with.
