| | THANKS!
For helping keep this great
old truck web site
on the Internet for over 30 years! and not clogged down with Ads! Again, thanks! | | | | Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 206 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 206 | I got my replacement Omaha Standard flat bed/stake bed sitting on the frame and hoist frame on back of my 58 Viking 60. The truck came to me with only the hoist and a rusted out bed . The pivot / pin hinge attachments are going to have to be welded to the new bed. MY QUESTION .. Before engineering where mounts go...and welding the pivot point on back of bed... How much space should I leave between the back of cab and front of flatbed in the down position that will allow the hoist to raise bed without front of bed hitting cab. The frame of the bed is 6". May seem to be a silly question but. Having never put a hoist flatbed on a truck I sure don't want any surprise after welding Thanks again to all you fellas advice. You be helped me so much already. Gaining convidence as I go. Pete | | |
