jeepermat Posted July 19, 2009 Posted July 19, 2009 New member here, just picked up an 86' that is rusted out. Most of the bed blew off on the way home so I am going to put a flatbed on it. Post up a pic of yours. Thanks
jpnjim Posted July 19, 2009 Posted July 19, 2009 I never did an MJ flatbed, but here's my old J-truck from the early 90's: Frame was rusted behind the shackles, and the bed was junk. So I chopped a foot off the frame, and built a bed out of wood (not so stylish today, I know): When the box + spare was taking up the whole thing, I flipped the box on it's side, and sunk the spare in the bed: Was a nice truck, but 4 wheel drum brakes & 8 mpg got old after a while. Parted it out some time in 1996 (360/T-18/5lug sfD60 & 4.10's)
HOrnbrod Posted July 20, 2009 Posted July 20, 2009 Here's a nicely done example: http://www.comancheclub.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=17446&p=177196&hilit=stacks#p177196
pilotblake Posted July 20, 2009 Posted July 20, 2009 I am also looking to ditch the bed for a flat bed.
