 IMG_3068 by Mike Gunter, on Flickr  IMG_3069 by Mike Gunter, on Flickr We tilted the top half of the headache rack 10 degrees to match up to the body lines a little better. I think it turned out pretty good  IMG_3070 by Mike Gunter, on Flickr Until Monday this is how she sits, it was tough to call it a day but we've got a busy weekend!

If the 2nd amendment was written just to include guns for hunting, why is there not an amendment to protect fishing poles?

Very nice! I have built several flatbeds and welding beds in my time and can appreciate your fabrication skills.

But for the clearance, indestructable. Great work!

Beefing up the motor at all? No, the only reason we’re lifting the rear is bc of the leveling kit and the loads that may go on it. This flatbed isn’t going to weigh very much at all, we’re using 11 and 14 gauge tubing for everything except the frame runners.

That looks great. I have a 2011 that has turned out to be the best hunting truck I've ever owned. I bought it new, it's a daily driver for my long work commute with 225k on it. Tacomas are light, they don't sink or bury up. Keep the pic's coming.

Yesterday we got the headache rack finished up, floor and skirts welded on, and added a couple of gussets underneath and a basket at the front. Today we are adding a tailboard, hoop steps, and finishing up the floor then it will be ready to prime before getting lined tomorrow.  571 by Mike Gunter, on Flickr  574 by Mike Gunter, on Flickr  573 by Mike Gunter, on Flickr

Got any idea what it will weigh? I overshot the weight a bit, it ended up being 820 lbs. That's only about 500 more than the factory bed, with the air bags that will be no issue at all.  591 by Mike Gunter, on Flickr

You’d be surprised how many ranchers around here use these trucks for everyday ranch work. There are several in town with their own version of a flatbed on them. Friday at the gas station we had to give two guys a walkthrough on this one and left them with business cards, I’ll be pretty surprised if we don’t build two or theee more before the years end

You’d be surprised how many ranchers around here use these trucks for everyday ranch work. There are several in town with their own version of a flatbed on them. Friday at the gas station we had to give two guys a walkthrough on this one and left them with business cards, I’ll be pretty surprised if we don’t build two or theee more before the years end It's not just being on a Toyota, although that is a lot of it. I'm so used to seeing flatbeds on DRW trucks that anytime I see them on a SRW it looks goofy....

Ah I see, I would agree with that too but srw flatbeds are all over the place out here too. It took me a while to like mine but it’s grown on me big time. The functionality of a flatbed is second to none if you work off your truck too

Nice work bud...that's handier than a pocket on a shirt.

You can always spot them with the flat bed and John deer compressor riding along.

SRW keeps you out of CDL territory, but farmers should be exempt from that unless they use their pickups for other stuff. Pretty much any dually hooked to any trailer with 8 lug axles is CDL required if not farm use.

I envy those who know how to weld and do it well.
Heck, I can't even solder copper pipe.
