10-4. I wouldn't put any load on it till you do. If the load makes your rear end start bouncing up and down it will destroy your tires.

Yep, old school body lift. 2 would be best but some steel washers would be stronger. Or at least 3 washers the same size of the pucks. One on top and bottom and one in the middle so that you dont deform the pucks. If they deform they can crack easier and then they will just fall apart.

I'm prolly gonna do 2.. I'll figure out stronger ones eventually...

I don't really put heavy stuff on the flatbed. The one and only time I did was a 1 ton pallet with wood stove pellets in it :eek:

its not the weight-its that the rubber degenerates over time. go in the back door of any steel or machine shop and they probably have scrap you can have...
