Re: frame to be sandblasted (unsafe?)
lol!I hauled mine with a short box as well,but what I did was use some scrap tubing I had around and built a quick rack that fit in the front and rear stake pockets(nothing connecting front to back).Then loaded the frame on so it stuck out over the cab and out the back slightly.Then clamped it down with bessies and ratchet strapped as well.Worked great for me.

Re: frame to be sandblasted (unsafe?)
How did you keep that frame in the bed? I'm surprised the frame didn't fall out, or did it?

Re: frame to be sandblasted (unsafe?)
I think the frame in the truckbed pic is missing any one of us in a ball cap and a set of bibs with a longneck in one hand and a thumbs up...

Re: frame to be sandblasted (unsafe?)
Thats pretty sweet. A chevy Hauling another Chevy. The biggest advantage to a long box truck is that you can haul bigger and more stuff then with a short box. When I sand balsted my frame I just stripped everything off the frame and put it up on saw-horses and blasted it in my back yard.

Re: frame to be sandblasted (unsafe?)
I twice hauled a swb frame when my truck was a lwb. Not something I want to do everyday, but had to do what I had to do, lol.

The only problem I see in that picture is that yours Chevy[s] are sharing the driveway with a F*rd!
