Chassis and Cab work

So I need a cab and bed stand so I can store and move it around by myself without having to man handle it everytime I want to move it. I remember a thread on here of something that is exactly what I need.

Re: Chassis and Cab work

.... All credit goes to this guy Chevyman63 for inspiring me to do this, basing the build off his design; I might have to slightly tweak it because mines a long bed

Re: Chassis and Cab work

since you are talking truck stuff, and not burb stuff, I'll relocate this to the truck board... was posted in the burb section.
