    Western star does not build vans or flat beds.
    Know the length of your truck and what length of trailer you can hual.
    Paper and pencil and ruler and go at it.
    Just remember where you landing gear is going to be too and how much weight you want to carry is going to determined by axels and their configurations and wheels Clarence.
    Extra storage boxes will be very handy but will they fit.
    Measure and re measure again and again.
