Long bed/short bed, how about no bed!

[mopar346]

OK, yesterday I started my conversation from a flat bed to an extended long bed. First order of business was getting rid of the flat bed. It weighed rigth at 2000 lbs. so I got almost $200 out of the deal. I still need to cut some blocks off the frame and cut the tommy lift off of it. I already have a really nice long bed box with the inner fenders removed. It is the same color. I removed the inside dually tire so I can sit the bed in place and get the holes in the frame right and then I will be able to measure and cut about 2 inches out of each side to fit the tires. The tires measured 47 inches inside to inside the bed 48 inches, I figure with 2 inches I will have plenty of clearance, I will however measure again before cutting. Once that is done I will start fitting the extention to meet the cab, still gotta find a donor box to get the 2 ft from. Should be interesting, wish me luck.
