I have a used Knapheide 8ft service body I need to do something with, I was wondering if anyone has tried to mount one on a deuce. A bobbed deuce that is. Any ideas or pictures?

Great replies! Looks like it's a matter of relocating the fuel tank and spare tire to get it low enough for easy access. I'm sure I have enough room so the tires won't rub the bed if I go with singles 1100R20's. Next question is, would the M105 trailer springs handle the weight of the body plus a load? I have a 13hp air compressor and Lincoln 8 Ranger to mount on the body. The body itself is 1300 lbs.

C&C Equipment had built a great looking M35A3 with a service body and I can't find pics of it anywhere now.

I believe the one you are talking about Clinto, is the one Derek posted above!
Hmmmm....... maybe. I remember it being 3-color camo, with Gillespie. I'll have to ask maccus, he'll remember it.
