Hillbilly Pick Up Bed Part 3 - Tailgate Build - DIY Wood Truck Flat Bed

[@chrismurphy4368]

Also I'd use some lags and washers to hold the 2xs together, drilled and countersunk so they're not sticking out. Screws will break over time from movement and vibration unless you use certain ones.

Ty , bro! You are the man. It looks great and I have some guys copying your work on my 1987 Toyota Pickup. After it's done I'm going to do the same to my 1994 Toyota Pickup. Much appreciated videos!

Nice job! However, you technically need mud flaps and rear side marker lights and reflectors to be street legal. Now, will you get pulled over for missing those things? Probably not.

@@kylethestyle it’s a 24 year old truck and considered an antique in CT so there is a lot of leeway with those requirements. I do want to add mudflats and I did buy side indicators but never put them on. Thanks for the comment!

Never fasten a hinge into an end grain. Wrong hinges for this

[@OleYankeeFarm]

I need a specific hinge that I have not found yet. I want to be able to fold the gates all the way around to the side of the bed rails.
