Looking for ideas... a better way of transporting sheet goods. I've got a full size truck (RAM 2500), but it is only a 6' long bed, and the wheel wells interfere with the "floorspace." To date, I've been throwing some long 2x4s in the back and stacking sheet goods on them--one end of the 2x4 at the front end of the bed, other side resting on top of the tail gate, maybe 3 to 4 across. That has the benefit of being easy, but wondering if there is perhaps a more elegant solution someone's pioneered. I'm also about to transport some 4x10 sheets of drywall, and kind of wonder about the strength of my solution.
Anyone built a better rig? I was sort of thinking along the lines of a tilted over "L" where the edges would rest along the short leg and the flat sides on the long leg... Maybe 3 or four structures like that, all carriage bolted to 4x4s that ran the length of the bed and cantilevered out the back end of the truck? (So, if you were looking at the back of the truck, the short sides of the sheets would diagonal going from high to low left to right (or right to left).
Alternatively, maybe I should build something like what I've got, only flatter and designed to just clear the wheel wells. (So, if you were looking at the side of the truck, the long side of the sheets would diagonal high to low from the back of the bed to the front).
Ideas? Suggestions?
