Hey guys just about to mount a deck on my FE180. The truck will be used as a work truck not a expedition vehicle. but still looking for the best way to mount the deck onto the frame.
from my understanding the frame needs to be able to flex. And seems like the common practice is to mount the deck on top of wood and use you bolts to secure it .
the deck has a built in pintle hitch that will be used for towing skid steers and am thinking will need more than just you bolts to secure the deck.
I saw a new Fuso at the dealership that had a deck installed and it's used combination of you bolts and two-sided plates in the middle of the deck bolted to the frame.. do you think that would still allow adequate flex to keep the frame from cracking?
