Okay, I just got a "new to me" truck. 94 GMC one ton with extended frame (ex Uhaul truck). It came with no bed, but the frame will accommodate a 12 foot bed, which is really great for my needs (hauling hay). I have a really nice 8 foot steel flatbed. Now, Ive already cut it into three sections, set it up on the frame and I"m ready to start filling in the gaps (it needs to be lengthened in front of and behind the wheel well cut outs). With me so far? So, here"s where I ran into a question that I don"t know the answer to. The bed already has the goose neck hitch built into it. If I position it where it should be and align the wheel wells to the truck, I"m going to have about five feet of bed and bumper behind said hitch. Will this be too much distance for most goose neck trailers? I don"t own a goose neck trailer YET, but I have a 30 foot tandem dual wheel bumper pull that I"ve been thinking about converting to goose neck. And who knows what deal may present itself in the future? If anyone has any info that they would like to share on this, have at it. I can use all the help I can get! Thanks, Ron

After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
