Sleeper

[beachbummer]

I will be buying a duce in the next 6 months, and one thing I would like to do is add a sleeper to it so I could have a few more people ride with me. Has anyone done this b4?

there is a M35A2 with a sleeper in the movie RED DAWN. Its in the scene where the box of fruit falls on the road.

man your good. Don't know how I remembered the truck but you got an image. It may be a m36A2 but you get the idea

It looks, to me, like a M36A2 with the frame lobbed off past the tandems and a M35 bed. Course then again, we are talking about Hollywierd.

thats pretty much my goal for my 818 when i get one
16x20s a 36in sleeper and mount the spare on the 5th wheel(a fullsize spare)

Theres a VERY nice 818 with a sleeper on it here. I cant think of his name right now but its dave something. He pulls a tanker with a cool POW/MIA painting on the back.

yeah its sweet other than its on a civi frame with the civi engine drivetrain(if im not mistaken i dont remember i may be wrong so no offense to him) etc... thats the only way you can fit, because i do knoe that you cant fit a sleeper and the 5th wheel on the stock 818 frame with full articulation, you have to get a longer or different frame or no trailers(5thwheel)

Dave's truck, if you read the whole thread, was based on a m820...so he has the longer frame and space to have the sleeper and still have a 5th wheel.

The sleeper on dave's truck is the size I would go with, and also the stacks he put on there look great as well.
