Sled deck on 1/2 ton?

[Bnorth]

what about a deck on a ford Maverick?

You can be a pioneer...

Jesus! 100% of the sled's weight is behind the rear axle.

Makes turning the wheel a breeze. No guarantee the tires steer you though

I just put a new Limitless Tonneau cover on my kids truck works awesome for a 1/2 ton there not cheap at $4500 with the sled kit but it works for him.

I was on the way to Cranbrook yesterday and saw a 2014ish Tundra with a deck on and 2 sleds on it. sure looked heavy on the back end.

Not at all,,, my old friend use too pack 4 or 5 sleds in the truck box of his old 1968 chevy 1/2 ton on bias ply tires years ago...

They would stuff them into the truck box sideways...

Weight ratings are over rated ,,, just get out there Ride,,, good times for sure

It my 16 year old boys truck that's what he wanted can't put a sled deck on a 1500. He wanted one to haul is new turbo sled around works good for him and doesn't beat up his truck box

can't put a sled deck on a 1500.

Them's fighting words:

Sled deck on 1/2 ton?

Just wondering if running a deck on a 1/2 ton is possible?. It would be on a 2012 dodge 1500 and have 2 sleds on it. Thanks.

How do you get 4 elephants into a new ford 1/2 ton ???

2 in the front and 2 in the back !!!

How do you know when there a 4 elephants in your house ???

If there's a brand new ford 1/2 ton sitting in your drive way and there's no elephants sitting in it !!!

Ford 1/2 tons are the best...

I am so disappointed that I wasn't quick enough to get a pic of the french double decker I saw today. One sled over the cab.

I will do a little update on the Limitless Tonneau cover. The idea of it is great but the engineering of the ramp system must of been done by a 3 year old absolute junk. You pull ramp out and you need to put a pin in if you don’t you get a ride in an ambulance to hospital as my boy found out the hard way knocked out. With the pin in the ramp it still wants to walk off the top and come off. Taking it to a welding shop and going to get it built right so I am not very happy right now.

Holy ch!t man, is your boy OK (other than the obvious head trauma and stitches....)? That looks downright scary!

Yeah boy is ok knock him out cold as the ramp came back and smashed his head open. Needed 15 staples to close up the gash.
