So as long as you get an OBD2 LT powerplant and ECM it shouldn’t really be a big deal. So when I go scan it the ecu wont show the vin and they will do a safety check on the truck and then readiness on the ecu and motor? > [@Long car ride with a dog: what to do?](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/long-car-ride-with-a-dog-what-to-do/38969/2): > > I just read the whole thread…pretty cool project…Did you end up doing the tilt bed or no ? didnt see that in there but did see you mentioned you might do that. > I helped body drop a sick truck that had a bed that tilted up and the roof tucked under the bed… Is this thing going to roll around this spring? No bed is just going to be hung on the frame, and we are going to put either a snap on cover or something on it, or sheet metal it right flush. Maybe flush wood or something… TBD still. Yeah it will be rolling spring time or so. its in storage right now. Still ironing out the plans for my garage build. thats first priority at this time. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/dragndoors-1998-ranger/251441)._
