Quincy, IL
I was setting up our knaphiede bed today.
I wanted a full torch bottles so I could switch them out with the sets at our shop. So I cut a hole in the floor for the bottles and welded in 3/8th wall tubing. The oxygen is in the floor 20 inches and the gas bottle is in the floor 10 inches. Knaphiede doesn't have a spot for a spare tire so we also sunk the tire in the floor so that it doesn't block the back window. Next is a fuel tank. It will be the same height as the spare tire.
The bed seems to be fine but is chipping paint in alot of areas. Also disappointed that it doesn't have a tailgate. I plan to make my own and then have the it and the bed linexed. It is a quality built bed but definitely room for some improvements. Definitely plenty of room for what I'm doing.
