Default Flat bed stacks

Personally I like them better than regular bed stacks, however just like regular bed stacks I have seen some that look awesome and others than look like ****. One thing I did when I was thinking about stacks on my rig was go buy a 6" piece of pipe 3' long, grabbed a chair put the pipe in the bed and studied it. I ended up deciding against them because I don't want to be cleaning soot off the top of the trailer every time I take it out.

My flatbed sticks out past the cab just enough to fit 5" pip in front of the bed and beside the cab, like they do on big trucks with wide sleepers...

I think that will look great.

Im trying to get rid of this hideous bed. I just gotta wait it out and find a white bed to stick on that is in decent shape because i dont wanna run around with 2 different colors until i can lay some silver down maybe. Cant decide onn the color either!

I would go ahead with the single. Offset just a tad from the middle like everyone else does it. Then you can do the duals when you get the bed on if you want.

It tried googling it, but most trucks with a flatbed and stacks were rangers, S-10's, and misc 4 banger yotas and such
