I finally had good weather around here so i decided to bob my bed. I removed 11 inches. Wasn't as bad as i thought it would be. Im really happy with how it turned out. If you have any questions feel free to ask.

yea, props man, looks really good

 

wow man, looks GRRRRRREAT!!!!!

 

thats so sick! I'm about to bob mine as well as put an extended cab on my frame where i only had a single to begin with ...so double bob? lol

any tips or problems with welding up the inside of the bed under the bed rails?

 

Nice job man, looks pretty clean!

 

Thanks guys. I couldn't be more happy with how it turned out. Next i need to install my high steer and power steering.

BASKETCASE: I only welded the outside parts of the bed, but you shouldn't have any problems welding under the bed rails.

 

nice bob! makes me wish my bed wasnt a rusty hunk a junk and had somethin to weld it to

 

You make it look way too easy man. Looks like it came that way off of the lot!

 

Nice work man! Good fab skills at work.

very nice man. thinking of doing the same to mine cuz i hate the longbed with a standard cab-kinda looks funny. but nice work doode

 

i thought the same thing, so i put in a light/roll bar to fill some empty space in the bed.
looks pretty proportional now.

also, great job on the bed bob. some awesome welding skills here.

 

Nice looking job.

Phessor: i used a grinder with cutting wheel to cut it. worked out really good.
Greatskiiiier: sure i can do yours next, just make sure your wallet isnt empty when you show up lol

 

lol my wallets always empty, but i got a fridge full of cold beer that id be willing to share

 

haha. thats almost just as good. id probably spend the money on beer anyways

 

WOW! Thats the cleanest bed bob I have seen. Nice work! Really clean, perfect union, welds and bondo. Great job man!!
