Been wanting to last bed for along time now, I am completely in love with the exoskeleton design you did. Great job from braeking out of the normal designs.

Awesome. Excellent. A master craftsman.

So awesome.

great job, nice to see how ordinary hardfacing turns into art. What wire did you use for hardfacing?

This look.good

Man never thought about that!

Gooseneck? 5th wheel? All i saw was a pintle hook.

That is awesome!! Very nice work! What does something like that costs?? Looks like great quility, which normally = Big $$$$

How do i figure out the measurements for the rail height? Is there a formula?

What kind of hitch are you going to use

That is a nice bed !!! A little history for everyone about the term Hotshot , I am a retired Hotshot Trucker . In my day Hotshot Trucker was a Driver in a big rig that would pick up in a city say Chicago and run directly to the drop off say El Paso without stopping except for fuel . We had a few tricks to accomplish this task . Over the years I noticed the trucks have gotten smaller , there was a time when I noticed many Straight Trucks with sleepers , now I see Dually pick-ups with Gooseneck trailers and it makes me wonder , Does Hotshot still mean driving from a-b without stopping no matter how far ?

Why not hot dip galvanized the bed before final paint. Steelwork would not survive here in UK, having it galvanised is almost as cheap as painting nowadays, and last a lifetime.

Another nice job!

Are you still making these awesome pieces?

Thats 5 star love it.

What’s the brand?

That is a work of art sir. love it

How much does that weigh vs a convential flatbed? Full deck would be a lot more useful I think. Nice job on the build.

no goose hitch for hotshot?

Thanks love this kind of work. I am amazed at how quickly a $500 tool box can be eaten up with rust, poor quality paint, thin metal 16 ga maximum. The list can go on and on. I laugh to my self when I see a piano hinge tack on, guaranteed to be a disaster sometimes less than 2 years. Enough!!! What gauge metal are you using here?

hell yuh 🤙

Nice work👍

OTC makes a device you can put across the battery of the vehicle to eliminate the issues of weird voltages taking out the computers. OTC3386

You so have this truck bed thing going on. Nice job as always.

I think it’s called Magnetic Grey. Sorry gray, I’m in Canada. 😂

I have to build something for my grey extended cab ford too!

Great Video👍

Beautiful truck

Nice! Am considering building my own. Love the design. Very sleek for a modern truck. How much do you think you have in just the materials?

Hell yea

I would have watched this but that background " music " was driving me nuts ! So see ya !!

Impressive, you are very talented.

How much would something like this cost ?

😂

That's a good one😂😂😂

first! awesome short man, Im heading out to get rich. Thank you!

Just randomly came across this. Good content. Not a fan of the music being played. Good welding.

100% chance that truck has had more weight than they expected on it. And I’m glad I saw this before welding on my flatbed this weekend. Pull the negative…

Nice fix! Wish my welding looked like that. Based on the stress/failure explanation, seems like going longer with the repair plate towards the front might havebeen a good idea.

That sucker came out real nice man. ;)

Fucking DEF.

Will these ones work for a 2022 Silverado 1500

Isnt it the worst when the gloss shows all the whoopsies in your welds and you just whip yourself over it.. at least thats my experience!!

Awesome work. Always look forward to your flatbed build's

This thing turned out awesome! Nice work man!

What do you use for the door seals on the toolboxes?

Well done. Maybe slightly wider tires - at least at the rear for stability - would be useful. I don't know how heavy the loads it will be harnessed to. I saw that the springs were upgraded, but is there a difference in the frame between the F250 and F350 SRW?
