Track
Don't know the specifics but maybe this will help. Yes you grind the rivets to "adjust" the length. No there is no internal strength member in the rubber. It has a fiber core to it but basically it is conveyor belt type material. The guys at SECO in Augusta, GA told me once before to...
Flares
Steve and i havd this same conversation. Use 1.5 DOM tubing and bend flares that match the contour of the whole side of the bed's bottom edge but stand it off 8" and fill the rest in with plate. This will give you a walk way around your bed and fill it out to match the front fenders...

My thought s too...
I agree. That is why I put the M-105 trailer bed behind the HIAB on the full length frame to "see" what it would look like. It is almost as long as the standard deuce. This is in the photos of the M105 bed sitting on the tires. I decided to cut the "C" bed to 7'3". This...
