As a retired welder, that is a beautiful job of welding and plating the frame, I like the oval plate with plug welds as a frame reinforcement!!!

Good evening, I had to have my new rollback truck frame lengthened and they did not do a superior splice like you did. That is good engineering and excellent craftsmanship. I do like your plates on the splice with the rounded edges. That is exactly how aircraft panel splice work is done. Great video. You take care and good luck.

Beautiful job of reinforcing, I have seen it done with just fishplates inside the frame. I know a group of truck enthusiasts doing their trucks that way and worked well. I guess each to their own as to how much you want to reinforce it

When dealing with customers, we like to go above and beyond. We also do it this way so the customer won’t try to sell it as all original to someone else without them knowing the frame has been heavily modified.

If you don’t care about the stake pockets it would be even easier. Pretty much do a straight cut just up at the front. If you’re like me and don’t care about the 4” in the rear it gets even easier still.

Unless a frame is marked do not weld, it is ok to weld. Most standard automotive frames are welded from the factory. Only in the case of semi trucks is it illegal to weld on the frame.

I'm a little late to the party here, but do you still own the long bed you took off? If so, I'll make you an offer for it. I'm looking for one to replace what I have on my '78 F100. I've got a little too much rust to deal with. Thanks.

I fully agree. People do it all kinds of work to make their truck useless. People will start to think all the long beds look better when there are hardly any of them left.

Useless ???? How do you figure this just by shortening the bed ?? I have a factory short bed on mine and never had an issue,,, haul 16 foot lumber and ladders with no problems... Now if one is done that involves putting it on a Crown Vic frame and using up the bed depth,, I can see your point... To each his own... Anyway,,, there’s way more long beds than short out there.... Have a good one....

@@shawnwimberly9294 Ha. Hauling 16 foot lumber in a 6 foot bed. Totally grounded in reality. Some people would draw a mustache on the Mona Lisa. Maybe your dicks too long too, might go in for a bob job. I heard chicks like em better. Just because a bunch of people get together who have bad taste, magically makes them all think that suddenly they all have the same now good taste because everyone share their ideas. And a cult of bad taste is born. Just like that.
