    That's a clean looking install there. Mine came with the camera but it's one of those commercial rigs like you mentioned. Idk about a bed delete situation.

    You have a good eye for size and space. The spacing is 12" o.c., which is based on some other dump bodies that I looked at. Those had formed cross members though, not channel. Except one that I saw had some extra hard use. Even with 12" spacing and alternating i-beams and formed pieces the...

    If I was in Canada I think I would have a hard time waiting so long and I would consider buying off of the lot instead. Even just 10 weeks or so is nerve wracking enough.
