Stonewall, I assume you're talking about the "Hooker" plugger. If so, could you just slide the mounting bracket bar over to the left a bit (through the U-bolts) for your first lap and boundaries of beds and such? Depending on the size of bracket you have to the size of your deck, you may even want to look into welding a little extension of square tubing onto the right end of the bracket to allow this. Just make sure you grind the welds smooth to allow for ease of movement through the U-bolts when they are loosened. Just a thought!
