FYI, there's no cargo tie downs because the truck was classified as a "tractor-truck". That classification allows you to not be subject to the 65' nose to tail length of your rig but changes it to trailer length only. But with that classification, you cannot have the capability to carry any cargo on the truck.

I have the same setup, when loaded heavy the rear fender bracket will bottom out on the leaf spring way before the bump stop will. Tool boxes will fill with water when truck is being washed or it rains. The bolts holding the tool boxes arent water tight. Drill a couple holes inside the front of the boxes to let it drain.
@BloodSweatandGearsGA2 жыл бұрын
Mine were side bolted with the previous setup they used I guess, so I didn’t get water in mine. Maybe silicone, or rubber washers?

I feel like maybe strapping one of those little Honda Generators to either the spot on the side of the fuel tank or the back would work good if said person wants power when stopped without idling the truck.

@@Jacie_HughesI’ve had hitch crafters, so I would know. Yes it works but it looks ugly after some time. Also most people don’t want to pay up and get a nicer/better quality setup. If you don’t care how your setup gonna look in a few weeks/months then go for it.

I had virtually the same setup built on my F550 at a fab shop in Inverness FL. 103 gallon ATI fuel tank and similar fenders (wish I had yours...) YES! you need some angle iron or other support inside those side boxes. Mine started cracking around the bolt holes at about 10k miles. Nice truck!

@brokenot4 жыл бұрын
The "catwalk" looks clean, but why rely on "anchor points" and "bungee cords" when it'd be so easy to incorporate rails into it? Nothing obtrusive or heavy - maybe something made out of 1" OD tubing that wraps around the perimeter and is about 1/2 to 2/3 the height of the auxiliary fuel tank that consists of 2 or 3 horizontal tubes with vertical bracing every 18" or so....

I liked your preview of the truck although if it was mine I would have cut it off behind tires and catwalk should come out over tires with big mudflaps with side rails then more useable space and the over length ticket he will get (65 foot) wouldn't be a issue.

Overlength ticket (65') doesnt apply to cab n chassis. I run a 2020 5500 very similar. It's considered a tractor and trailer which allows up to 75'. If you have a truck bed it's a pickup and you are limited to 65'....
