Building a flatbed for my 84 4x4 pu. How much space should I have from bottom of flatbed to top of my rear tire? I do have a 3 inch suspension lift on it right now. Currently I have about 6 inch before tire would touch. That enough?

 

All depends on if you use your truck as a truck.

Meaning do you throw loads of 1000 pounds or more on in every day use in real rough terri.

Hauling firewood out of the woods that sort of thing .

I have a 86 4x4 pickup with new 235/75/15 tires the clearance one that to the bottom of the bed to the top of the tire empty is about 3 1/2"

I have not used it for other then firewood at home . I have yet to hit the bed on the tires.

 

Exactly what I was looking for! Thanks!...not really gonna carry much of a load while flexing I wouldn't think. So I should be fine.
