I am going to install a hidden hitch into it next year so it will have a flip up door to hide the end. I will also install a drop spare tire mount under the bed so it can be tucked up under neath so nobody can see it either. I have a 4' x 4" piece of square steel mounted to the box mount that is second from the front one. Then I have a 3" x 3" piece of square steel with a piece of 1/2" plate welded to it , mounted at the rear of the frame, and a piece of 2" x 2" square, mounted halfway between the 2 for some middle support. It gave the flatbed the right amount of rake to fit in with the lower body line of the truck.
