The dimensions of the box itself is 4' x 6'. The tongue is currently 57" long (from the front of the box) which allows me to add a shelf on the front if I decide to OR I can cut some off and adjust as needed.



base all welded and notched:


Laying the tongue on for a ton of measuring to make sure it was square and centered


Done with the frame

 

5' seems a bit long, esp considering your truck is already a long bed. You're going to need a CDL to haul that thing...

 

haha yea, i totally agree with it SEEMING to be long, but I think it'll even out if/when I add a cargo area on the front. I also still need to add the "V" pieces from the corner of the frame to the tongue also...forgot about that part (and dont have the metal)

 

Anyone need an extra oem spare tire and wheel?

Never been used but looks as would be expected from being underneath a truck that actually wheels.

Free to a good home.

 

Tire size?

 

265 65/17
Tire is a Dunlop AT20
Wheel is steel.

 

No good for me then. I'm on 16s

 

The long tongue will be a blessing when you try to back it up. I would also add some 45* off the tongue to the base of the frame. This will allow for frame to tongue strength. I based my spring pearch on a 60* shackle angle so I can have it loaded down and not be flat which is bad or 90* so it would jar the ride. Going home to measure my springs in a bit.

 

Not difficult to do a telescoping tongue. Yep.....When trailer is shorter than truck, can be a bitch to back.

 

I measured 53 1/2 from center to center on the three leaf pack that I have.

 

thanks kurt!

 

Finally upgrading my kitchen! Lowes is having a decent sale on appliances through november right now if anyone cares haha

 

Microwave too? Tell Katie she now owes me another meal.

 

Microwave is next, It still half ass works. she is ready to cook for you now With all this fancy shit haha

 

That's where I got my set for the new place. Black stainless ftw

 

I just spent 3500 on whole house of appliances. Microwave, stove, oven, frig, dish washer, washer and dryer. Their Thanksgiving sale is what I was waiting for.

 

I only got a 4 piece kitchen set. $1980 something after tax out the door!
Best price for black stainless out there. GE's new color, Slate Grey, is nice but I couldn't find the set in my price range.

 

All of mine will be going into a cabin that we are building so I will have to put them in storage until it's finished. This is the best time to buy them though.

 

Good thinking!
I got mine because of the sale too. And they aren't that black, more a dark gray shade.

 

My wife apparently hates the fridge that came with the house, wants a new one, or to move our garage fridge that doesn’t match to the kitchen.
I bought truck parts
