I had to pull my tool boxes and welder out to move my daughter from Phoenix to Portland. Since everything is out I am revamping my setup, and making repairs. I have welded together my 2 pork chop boxes to make one side box. My welder and gas drive compressor were mounted on a skid and bolted through the bed support rails with 1/2 plate back up washers. I never had any trouble with it mounted that way. I am leaving the compressor off and mounting an engine driven compressor in the engine bay that will more than replace my gas compressor. This will get me a little space back in the bed.
I am considering mounting the welder transverse across the front of the bed with no skid. It doesn’t really line up with the bed support rails that well though, maybe the front most rail, but that is it. How much support do I need to build under the bed?
