What is the cost of that
@@ericrichardson865 he had the motorcycle lift already and i believe it was $2500 to modify, make it work, and made sure it was built heavy enough to haul.
How long did it take you to install
@@hhazelhoff1363 roughly 3-4hrs because you have to modify some things
@@wickedgarage thx, you happy with the ride and the quality
@@hhazelhoff1363 so much better
That makes me miss old freightliner dashes haha 6 torx and you got access to everything😂
Welding question, are frames made of a stronger steel? I’m a new welder and have noticed a lot frame repair vids are mig root to mainly fill and burn out bad stuff, then some specific stick weld type for the rest? I’m sure on a dump bed it’s not a big deal especially with a fish plate. Thanks for all the videos! I’m always learning!
@@Christopherbever theres a bunch of ways and products depending on what your repair, i use er70s6 or a soft hobart arc 71 depending on job or whats on hand, the fish plate helps keep it from happening again as well
How did that rust out so bad!
@@Christopherbever tin steel, foam that holds water, salt, and sitting lol
Been thinking of something similar,super job! Thanks
@@dlansburg2673 Thanks man!
Great work
@@SerryNurvue thanks!!
Very nice, great job matching the color of your truck, good and rugged as well.
@@kevincurry859 thanks man! Customer loves it! Will be back in for some custom boxes possibly!
Been wanting to last bed for along time now, I am completely in love with the exoskeleton design you did. Great job from braeking out of the normal designs.
@@garygray2528 thank you!
Awesome. Excellent. A master craftsman.
@@Iamtherodlight1453. thanks!!
So awesome.
thank you! check out the hot shot flatbed build too! Also have another build coming soon!
great job, nice to see how ordinary hardfacing turns into art. What wire did you use for hardfacing?
@@wildwelder10 thanks man! Used hobart 240 alloy
This look.good
@@user-ro1ct9cc9p thanks!
Man never thought about that!
@@gtroofingconstruction9491 easy money man! 😂
Gooseneck? 5th wheel? All i saw was a pintle hook.
@@nonsequitur807 its just the style the customer wanted, if he decides to get a gooseneck or fifth wheel, i made it heavy enough to put the rail system like he asked, mainly tows his equipment with the pintle hook trailer
That is awesome!! Very nice work! What does something like that costs?? Looks like great quility, which normally = Big $$$$
@@mikesmodscustoms thanks man! $9k plus tax
How do i figure out the measurements for the rail height? Is there a formula?
@@ghost_sierra1600 i use cad, draw and design to whatever codes you have in your job area
What kind of hitch are you going to use
@@user-ix4dl1dy7q custom just wanted this style, he uses the pintle hook, but if he goes gooseneck or fifth wheel he is gunna do the rail setup, thats why i built it so heavy lol! I actually have to fabricate and add some custom boxes so stay tuned for that video!
That is a nice bed !!! A little history for everyone about the term Hotshot , I am a retired Hotshot Trucker . In my day Hotshot Trucker was a Driver in a big rig that would pick up in a city say Chicago and run directly to the drop off say El Paso without stopping except for fuel . We had a few tricks to accomplish this task . Over the years I noticed the trucks have gotten smaller , there was a time when I noticed many Straight Trucks with sleepers , now I see Dually pick-ups with Gooseneck trailers and it makes me wonder , Does Hotshot still mean driving from a-b without stopping no matter how far ?
Why not hot dip galvanized the bed before final paint. Steelwork would not survive here in UK, having it galvanised is almost as cheap as painting nowadays, and last a lifetime.
@@huwrichards9016 very expensive
Another nice job!
@@freebirdwelds thank you!
Are you still making these awesome pieces?
@@michaelmallet3223 i do but they start at $1k plus tax/shipping
Can you email me the details on how to purchase? Michael.mallet3@gmail.com.
Thats 5 star love it.
@@krowbar23 thank you!
What’s the brand?
@@tharealentertainment sealight leds
That is a work of art sir. love it
@@paulbibb578 thank you!
How much does that weigh vs a convential flatbed? Full deck would be a lot more useful I think. Nice job on the build.
@@phase2projects363 roughly 800
no goose hitch for hotshot?
@@1ZlowZ custom didnt want it, mainly tows pintle hook for his machines, he said he will add the rails if he decides to get a fifth wheel camper or something
Thanks love this kind of work. I am amazed at how quickly a $500 tool box can be eaten up with rust, poor quality paint, thin metal 16 ga maximum. The list can go on and on. I laugh to my self when I see a piano hinge tack on, guaranteed to be a disaster sometimes less than 2 years. Enough!!! What gauge metal are you using here?
@@TheRitchieLeeShow 1/8” steel, maintainer hinges/handles on this one
hell yuh 🤙
Nice work👍
@@reedsmetalworks6664 thanks!
OTC makes a device you can put across the battery of the vehicle to eliminate the issues of weird voltages taking out the computers. OTC3386
In our shop we call it an anti zap. Might actually be the brand or product name.
👍
You so have this truck bed thing going on. Nice job as always.
I think it’s called Magnetic Grey. Sorry gray, I’m in Canada. 😂
Its carbonized metallic grey i got jumbled from the heat wave 😂😂😂
I have to build something for my grey extended cab ford too!
Next video in a couple days, its looking sick already!
Great Video👍
Thanks!

Beautiful truck
Thank you!
Nice! Am considering building my own. Love the design. Very sleek for a modern truck. How much do you think you have in just the materials?
Just the steel was about 1300 plus bending paint lights
Hell yea
I would have watched this but that background " music " was driving me nuts ! So see ya !!
Sorry to hear man, thanks for trying to watch!
Impressive, you are very talented.
Thank you!
How much would something like this cost ?
Was a T&M job, dont remember exactly and my rate was $40/hr cheaper at that time
😂
🤑😂
That's a good one😂😂😂
Thanks 😂🤑
first! awesome short man, Im heading out to get rich. Thank you!
Gotta flip them all man!! 😂😂
Just randomly came across this. Good content. Not a fan of the music being played. Good welding.
Thanks man!
100% chance that truck has had more weight than they expected on it. And I’m glad I saw this before welding on my flatbed this weekend. Pull the negative…
For sure, def lifted overweight loads, its a HD roll off just a poor design at the main stress point!
I agree on the design. It’s sort of odd to me that they didn’t put more plate/gusset on it knowing that these trucks are overloaded as often as they are, but you can see it cracked exactly where you’d expect it to based on that design.
Nice fix! Wish my welding looked like that. Based on the stress/failure explanation, seems like going longer with the repair plate towards the front might havebeen a good idea.
Thanks man! That fishplate should help alot, but its still going to have stress due to the bad design, this should help combat it for a long time.
