    Here’s the deal

    I have an old van trailer that I want to convert to a flatbed and haul the big $$ stuff so how would I convert it to work for flatbed?
    But I also want to be able to go back to van so whatever I do would have to be able to easily just
    “ switch it back “ when van gets crazy $$

    Please help. I’m a desperate man!!

    @SmallPackage this is for you!!

    Couldn't you just start another "Sky is Falling" thread? Or you don't want to step on @Kenworth6969 toes?

    Good idea. And as an added bonus, one can continue not actually securing the freight. It really is a win win.
