There's been a lot of questions on the boxdifferences and I've never been able to find a picture.

yes it is a dually bed. only difference is how much the wheel well is cutout. i like it because it's harder to notice the back end sagging. i still have plans to lift the back even if not a little higher then the front but im trying to get more important things fixed first.

There is also no support between the inner fender and the bedside. The dually fender ties the bedside to the inner structure. Over time I'm sure the lack of support will cause stress cracks to form on the bedside.

yes. i noticed that the bedsides can be pushed back and forth pretty easy and i was thinking about making some supports for that. i dont know about stress cracks though. while driving and looking in the mirror( which isnt saying much) i cant see the bedsides moving at all but some support could surely help.

Here's my work Dodges!!

The truck in the back getting the wheel bearing worked on is my old reliable worktruck, a 91 Dodge 250 4wd with a flatbed. It can pull a thousand gallon water wagon all week on practically one tank of fuel, it still amazes me, plus has plenty of power. Front truck is one i just bought a 2005 3500 with a nice flatbed, 5.9 cummins as well.
