They look great! The only thing that had me questioning if they were real rims is the center cap in the middle of the 10 lugs.

Thanks! I haven't been able to find another hub cover that I like, that still allows me access to the 4x4 lockout. I'll have to keep looking because I don't really like the factory 350 caps that are on there now either.

Yeah I see that, went with a John Woods trans this time so hoping for better luck. This time it was clutches but its been shafts and converters.

What's the length and how much is behind the tires....how long will the dovetail be?

I definitely need to get into whatever field of work motostroker is in.

Hydro dove is bad a$$ I was watching some videos on YouTube where they had a 150-200hp tractor parked on the dovetail and the trailer could pick it up without a problem.

80 hours a week of work involving flipping trucks and boats, owning a diesel shop, and keeping my grades up so I get scholarship money kickbacks

I think it is just the angle, my neighbors looks the same until you look underneath

It's looks, however when you crawl underneath it's built to the gills. Maybe it's the pictures, and how far you have to get back since it's so big

If the usable deck space is 48' long you might want to look into your local length laws so that you can make sure it's not to long, before your done adding the dove tail. I know here, it's 53' from the pin which puts the max deck length on a flat bed like that at 45' of useable deck + the 8' of gooseneck between the front of the deck and the pin. Hope that makes sense.
