That was one of the keys to getting it right. That utility bed came off of a 1973 F-250. Can't remember the manufacturer, but it was made in Southern California. In reality it's kind of a low-end type of a utility bed. There are some of them around, but it did take a while to find the right...
Yes. All that dashboard squeaking and squawking from what I can tell, has ended. Again, I would suggest retrofitting any of those OBS Fords that are taken off road with regularity. Just do it now before it breaks.
In my case I was way out there when it broke. And I was worried the whole...
The spares don't touch now, but when we upgrade to full size spares, they just well might. Was thinking about a custom fit piece of smooth canvas laced to the roof rack, or buttoned/snapped down. Like a bra on a sports car. Whaddya think?
The project really came out great. It meets or exceeds all expectations that we ever had. Me and my wife and two kids we can load up 20 gallons of propane, 40 gallons of gas, 20 gallons of fresh water, four large ice chests, and all the stuff we need to spend a week in the desert for the four of...
Many of my pictures. After they upload. It tells me the files too large. I know this isn't very coherent but maybe you're getting the idea.
Expo Portal says “oops, we encountered a problem”. Can’t seemingly upload everyday images from the gallery in my android phone.
I’m trying to gather up the photos. They’re a little jumbled right now I got some different sources I’m pulling them from. The thread not be coherent for a little while. Hope you can see what I’m doing.
Installed the bracket, little over an hour’s work, it’s perfect. I would go so far as to say if one owns one these trucks that goes off road, one should do the bracket even if the little plastic factory bracket isn’t broken. Yet. It ain’t good watching your dashboard going up and down 2-3” on...
I know how to do it. But when I try to do it. It says the images won't load, or the images are too big, or other various problems. Plus I have some of them on an iPad and I have some on my Android phone.
I'm going to give it another good try. You guys help me out so much I'd like to show it to...
Ordered. Guys as usual, thank you so much.
(Mike hope you’re doing well. The utility bed build with the F-350 and camper you sold me came out great. I’m just too stupid to know how to upload the images onto the site. I’d love to show it to you guys. In the end it was a very simple build. It...
We run a '93 Ford F-350, 4 door, 4x4 w/FWC Keystone to the Saline Valley with regularity. All's been well with the setup until the last run the dashboard itself has come loose on the passenger side.
I don't think this is all that uncommon. I know a friend had an '86 Bronco. The dashboard used...
Yes. Yes. We flipped them over and used them on the other side. Welded a bead all the way around. Don't think it would have been sturdy enough otherwise.
I want to get together a build thread. In the end, it wasn't very complicated. Just have to procure the right utility bed.
Yes. The storage was decreased significantly in the upper portions. Where we made the cut. The lower portion still hold quite a bit of stuff. Batteries propane tanks, Etc. I will try to find some pics. I had them as I was building it. And they got scattered and I can't find a lot of them.
Started this project right before I joined this forum in December 2014. That's why I joined. Lost my way during the build,took couple steps back, way out of money at one point, finally got it to this stage in the last month. We've taken it on some long road trips, LA to San Diego. Maiden...
I recently completed (to a "state of completion" if you know what I mean, it's now drivable/campable, but not ever finished with the tweaks) Utility bed/FWC Keystone combo rig on a 1993 F-350 4x4, 4 door. I am trying to get the pictures up.
