Bradford Built and Hillsboro too.
That is a nice setup. That looks like what I need. Thanks!
I just checked their website those things are sexy
Only a couple inches, the lift fits partially between the frame rails and the structure of the body. F3 Custom is a huge company, 120,000 sq ft shop and 120 employees and they custom design/build every body. I have high sides with dirt worthy gates for summer and for plow season a +/-16'' headboard and 1/4 length sides just to carry salt buckets and a shovel but the entire back and 3/4 of sides are open for visibility. F3 will build anything you can dream up. On my 2019 F550 they built a cross box between the cab and bed with a 95 gallon fuel cell in the box and a custom length dump rack body for the remainder of the available space =/- 9 ft. If you can dream it up they will build. Contact F3 and ask for Matt Duffy, he's great.
As stated before only a few inches when I built my bed. I did however move the whole scissor main pin a little cause the kit I got was a real piece of engineering work so to speak. I used a pickup kit that had a lifting rate of 4000LBs. I don't think my F250 can handle that LOL. This kit was designed to be tucked in a little as compared to the larger kits that sit on top of the frame and make it lot higher. See my build in my signature to get ideas. I also have many vids on this build on my YT channel.
You're gonna need a subframe as well as a hoist...any local upfitter should be able to straighten you out
Search scissor dump kit on ebay. However there are some caveats. See my signature on my dump bed build. I had to modify the Pierce kit extensively to get it to fit. #junk.
