    My 6 year old was watching with me and he says you need to learn your shapes. You called a triangle a speed square.

    I'll give it a whirl for a good bit. A nice way of removing cabs the poor boy way is using some chain bolted to the cab where the mounts were at... bring them together on the inside and then hook the cherry picker to it. It will slide under everything, the weight of the cab ain't really a whole lot so with the arm extended on the picker or engine puller as some call it, it will lift them right off. Yes once in a while its a bit heavy for the balance but a heavy weight on the pickers backbone.... I kinda went overboard and used a grease barrel that held about twenty gallons of moisture... its what ever you want to use that doesn't get in the way. One other thing I did to my picker was to inlarge the tire size or those caster wheels is what I am talking about to say a six inch wheel so it will roll better

    Did a pretty nice job, but I definitely would not trust how you welded that frame for the rear end. Part has a hot rod builder. That’s pretty crappy work but that’s just my opinion. I’ve built a lot of frames.

    What is the reason you cut on a 45° angle when youi Z'd the back?

      You can go straight up with the piece and you have overlap for strength but you did not shorten the frame any more. Thanks for watching.

    Is the bed going to sit up unusually high?
