You might re-install those corner brackets dealio's in the rear. Take a 2x2 or 2x4 run vertically along the seam. Screw from the outside plywood into the 2x. Plenty strong, with enough screws, and 2x scrap is probably readily available around the shop, or cheap at the store. The enclosed box...

The drag sheet on a metal bed might be fine. Might be worth trying once before investing some money. Plastic bed liners seem to be ribbed, from what I've seen. The metal might be smoother. My wipers squeek. Its not the blades, but the mechanism. Stuff getting into the vents is worse. I...

A 12" chipper is overkill for a pick-up truck operation. A smaller, lighterweight chipper might be better. I was chipping 3"-4" limbs and too quickly filled my oversized box on my pick-up. All the larger limb wood that you can roll in large pieces to the curb, and Craigslist away for free...
