Anyone Chop a flippac? Fiberglassers welcome

[Prybry]

I would suggest sectioning the front where it fits the cab,
shorten the window and extend the cab over hang.
This would avoid needing to modify the tent and most of the major glass work would be hidden.

I would use a cut line which aligns with the top of the windows.
This will help blend the knit line better.

Well I'm working on the aluminum flatbed as we speak. Should be lighter then the original bed I think, so the extra weight of the flippac wont be a big deal.

Im going for something very basic. I will add the drawers in the rear later when money permits. I might add a small step in front as well where the cab is. I will build the "spacer" to attach the flippac to the flatbed with the correct angle. I'd like that angle to incorperate a fold down step for getting in and out of the back of the truck. Id also like to incorperate jack mounts into the "spacer" to remove the combo when I need to hual something. Hope to get this done by next weekend but will see.

Looking awesome! I cant believe you have produced a great looking aluminum flatbed that fast. Looking forward to seeing everything installed with the FP on top. Well done.
