I am ACTIVELY trying to locate a flatbed for the truck... things being as they are right now, I cant modify anything to work, and cant justify the cost of paying someone.
Biggest issue, I PREFER a steel deck. But, they are just REAL HARD to find up here.... and, prime example, someone wants 650 for one that needs structural work(bowed). I dont know why they are so expensive up here... but.. hey...
Anyway, any tradeoffs with steel vs wood deck?
Who prefers what, and WHY?
I WILL be mounting boxes underneath, in FRONT of the wheels. AND, I will be building a headache rack, as well at some point.
Not a big fan of flat beds, and I am not sure if I need a DOT inspection here if I do have one(which will shut me down in a heartbeat)... BUT, I need the functionality of the flat deck more than I care about looks.....
Thanks,
Chase
