[QUOTE="AlaskanTrucker379, post: 1331714, member: 14294"] Got all the wiring done and few other smaller details [ATTACH=full]160719[/ATTACH][url=https://flic.kr/p/Cbddie]Untitled[/url] by [url=https://www.flickr.com/photos/alaskantrucker379/]Jory (Cory) Hubbard[/url], on Flickr Junction box hidden in a compartment behind the license plate. The pipe and hole is also hidden behind the plate. This is for access to the spare tire winch.

Everything thing is done with Phillips arctic flex wire and loom. All connections are heat shrinked that have been taped up as well. I am very anal about my wiring.

I bought a stock truck bed wiring harness off another ford superduty and cut it apart and used the plug from it. That way I have factory connection that is easy to unplug and remove the flatbed. The best part is, The truck is still completely stock as I avoided cutting the plug off of it. This how I do all my wiring. I always go to junk yards and buy stock pigtails. This particular one cost me $65 just so I could avoid cutting off a factory plug, but in my mind it is well worth it.

I used it as a place to mount auxillary back up lights and my light plug. Its 6061 flatbar that I loaded into the plascam and cut out. Then I put a slight bed in it to much the flatbed angle and welded some other planes in it then welded diamond plate on the top.

I tried to get all the extrusion marks lines out. I went 220,400,600,1000, then a cut with yellow wheel and red rouge, then a hand polish. Its not perfect but It turned out very well. I think this is what I will do to the entire bed. [/QUOTE]
