Off-Road Flatbed design

[DILLIGAF]

Ive been toying with the Idea of making a Off-Road flatbed for my truck for quite a while now. I need to mount a rear winch, Full size spare, jerry Cans and Recovery gear.


Today I think I found the best looking one I can design mine from. The square look actually fits the Ram pretty good and is way easier to build in your home shop

Kinda cool looking. Looks a bit like a typical welders deck.

Yup but those are in the 5K+ range out here.

Pretty sure it should only be 1K in Material. Im heading to the shop now to start measuring everything.

Yup seen a few, But Modifying old rusty **** is a PITA. I rather start new and do it the way I want.
