I changed that already. I usually don't read the manuals but I did on this thing. It works very good now after fixing the gas issue.

Looks really nice! How much do you think that bed weighs and how much will you be able to carry on it payload wise? How thick is that plywood? Looks like it's about 1" thick lol! Should be very beefy, a truck like that would be very handy

That ain't plywood. It's 2x10's untreated.

I'd say it weights close to 800- 1000 lbs. 6inch channel with 4 inch crossmembers. Also has a 6 inch channel for a bumper under 1/8 diamond plate. Also 2 3x4 angles that run front to back that sits on 2 4ft long 6 inch channels on the front part of the frame. Lets just say it's over built. The 2 angles are thick so I can mount a gooseneck plate on it.

Should tow nice with the long wheelbase. Any plans for a power upgrade?

Never know. I think it has 4.56's in it so towing shouldn't be an issue.

I spent Easter Day building the headache rack for the flatbed. I like it. It will bolt on. After the truck is painted It will get welded on also. I will nee to take it off to get to the back of the cab so that's the reason for bolting it on now. I need it to be useable for now.
