    Finally got started on the ultimate pickup bed trailer. A one ton dually gooseneck! So far all material source from scrap. Still a way to go but it's gotten even closer.



    Back end sourced from 79 ford 1 ton


    Gooseneck hitch assembly sourced from bale trailer. Complete with 10k drop leg jack.


    Pic of the hitch and pickup tempo bolted together and supported with a ratchet strap in order to pull it to the welder.


    Frame after I took out 3/4" to elimante the downhill slope.


    Level on the back of the upright channel on the hitch. Not quite level, a tad uphill, which is what I was aiming for.


    Frame welded back together with a 3/16 in behind the frame.


    Pic of hitch all welded up.


    Still have the floor and sides to do, lights, and gona have a friend put a electric over hydraulic dump kit on it.

    Stay tuned for more updates
