do a search on this thread. m101 bed on a m1028?? i did it. it has some pics. not all that hard. i would use the heaver bed if you can find it and make a bracket to mount the fuel tank spout too. makes lots of room for tires.

how much oil do you plan on doing at a time? I have 12 400 gal insulated fiberglass military water tanks. would keep the oil warm and would be very easy to hook up to a WMO system. you are a ways from oklahoma but the price would be good.
