The only flat bed kit that I am aware of is from All-Pro Off road:

If you or know some one that can weld, you could easily make one yourself, this thread from Pirate could give you some ideas:

  1. Look for ideas online.
  2. Save pics.
  3. Read threads and understand what's involved.
  4. Ask specific questions when you are stumped.
  5. Save your pennies.
  6. Break out your welder or find some one who can duplicate the style you are looking for.
