is it even possible to pull step decks with a 244” wb 379 and 62” bunk? I don’t see room for a headache rack. Not much frame rail space to store chains, binders, 15 straps, flags, 4 banners, strobes. Usually pulling different trailers so trailer storage doesn’t work either. Does anyone do this?
No headache rack?

Hmmm...244” is/was a rule here too. I don’t recall seeing too many.....maybe some short hood Petes.
The truck pictured is 253” with one of the skinniest headache racks I’ve come across. The frame rail step is 18”. Taking 11” out of the wb allows for only a 7” wide step box. About the width of my boot. imagining that truck with a 244” conjures up images of a asphalt snack every time I climb down from the catwalk

The place my dad was leased to didn't do too much flatbed but they had some. He ended up doing this with a 218wb. Catwalk box was for chains/binders then a 2ft box on the drivers side and a 1ft on the pass side. You probably have about the same amount of room @rank
Wasn't the most organized but it sufficed for what it was. The box sat nicely between the frame rails
