Well the super singles make it look like a different truck. I am going to add 6" between the bed and frame. I have a scrap deuce that I started cutting the box from under the bed but ran out of gas. BUMMER...

that is sweet
I want my truck to look like yours. I just posted pictures of mine with a 105 bed sitting on the back. I left the trailer frame attached to the bed, and used a 2x4 for the wood strip. I think it looks funny. I still have the stock ndt's on it, so maybe it will look better with 395's on it.
Are you thinking of adding the extra frame to help with tire clearance?
With that double frame, you should have plenty of room for a cylinder to make it dump!
Looks great!! Where do I find wheels like yours? I have my 395s on USA 6x6 wheels but I want to use miliary wheels if I can find some.
Thanks
I added 3" to the stock rims. Here is a step by step on how I did them.

I just built the rims on this truck. They did not take very long this time. I used riveted rims this time for the 3" extension. Once the extension was welded to the rim I cuy the center out and then cut each of the rivets one at a time. A lot faster and did not have any balance issues.
Here are the almost finished rime. Still need some grinding and paint.

I know paint and metal on the ends will make it look better. Think the bed is too high?

I think the bed is sitting a bit high (how high is it off the ground now?)
Do you think you can lower it and still have enough room to pull the fuel pump/module out?
Otherwise, it looks GREAT!
