Default XM813 with M246 Bed

Hello all, Just running this idea buy y'all to see if any one has thought of trying this. Thinking of buying a XM813 with no bed and put a M246 tractor/wrecker bed on it for yard use and lifting of heavy parts. Just looking for opinions. I will be for privet use.

Also looking to use this to build my house and shop with.

Yea, you would got to a lot of trouble to get it to work and it would probably tear up the back end, i.e. suspension and frame would get tweaked.

Use a 820 frame for a 246. Or get a 816 bed for your 813. Same chassis (well somewhat)

Thanks for the input. I think I will go with a K-Boom and flat bed for what i want to do with it.
