**lolife99** · 02-21-2012, 01:22 PM

Raull,... are you using any "vertical" supports under those beam mounts?
Or are the beam brackets just anchored to the outside wall?

raull · 02-21-2012, 01:58 PM

solid cement area at the top , we build two 16in wide by 10 in high by 1/2 inch thick plates and used 4 1/2 inch bolts all the way trough the outside of the wall on both sides , the beam its a 6 inch tall , the main area where one should worry is at the middle , so we welded a 1inch thread adapter in the middle for a center support just in case , dont need it but we just like to be safe than sorry , ill post some more pix as we go

Looking really good. As someone with a stepper, trying to sort thru what I need to fit wide wheels in the rear. I forget, did you shorten the rear end and cut the bed insides for tubs?

hello leon , i just went with some cookie cuters 265's for now but if i ever go wider i would cut bed panels and use some factory fleetside tubs and cut them to my specs.

**67cheby** · 02-22-2012, 10:29 AM

i have a beam running sideways through my garage....you got me thinking ! i need to see if mine is solid or one of the wood i beam ones , it is about 12 inches tall and 4 inches wide

raull · 02-22-2012, 11:26 AM
