Hi All,
Currently own a FWC (8') Grandby on a late-model Ford F350 6.7. Although I like my truck fine, I have always wanted the 2000-era Dodge ram cummins, my dad and brother own them and they really are as bullet-proof as everyone claims.
I found a Short-wheel base 6.75' bed ram and wondering if it is possible to essentially make it a full 8' bed by installing a flatbed? I think if the flatbed was installed as-is it would alter the center of gravity, probably not a big deal with the Grandby weight, but perhaps a problem if using a full size some day.
Does anyone know if flat-bed fabricators can extend the truck frame to essentially turn it into a long bed, or if they can install a 8" flat bed on a 6.75" truck?
Thank you
