| Honcho + F350 bed ?
Got a Honcho inbound to me now and also a Tamiya F350 body, was going to use just the cab but now thinking of cutting up the bed to put the sides on the honcho bed. Anybody every do it? Got pics of it you would care to share? Thanks Joe |

Here's what I have so far just what want I think!!!! The only way it works with the Honcho back is to make a super cab, unless you want to really shorten the wheel base!!!! |

Thanks for the reply and pics, That looks GREAT, And that's what I was thinking ,That I would have to shorten the wheelbase and don't want to do that. I might play around with shorting the bed sides

The wheel base is really close if you leave it as a regular cab long bed but the Honcho back I don't think would look right. I'm building a new F-350 body making the cab part a little longer, for this one here I had to set the rear shock towers forward to the Dingo position. One other thing you would have to narrow the Honcho rear cageto put the F-350 bed sides on, the Honcho cab is about a 1/4 - 1/2 " wider then the F-350.

Well, I might go with plan "B" and buy a drop bed form XXX, guess I will wait and see how they look when I get them or just do another truggy. Thanks For the info |
