    Right on man ask all you want.



    Took the truck down to the beach today and I am completely in love with the camper shell. Super functional and awesome to look at haha.

    All this thing needs is some sleek fender well lining/mud flaps to finish the look I have been going for since the beginning :spy: among other little details :D

    Love it with the topper! You did a great job with the new front clip too but I gotta say I prefer the 1st gen front end. The 2nd gen front clip makes the front look like a pig snout. It's just too big and not the right lines IMO.

    Just an opinion. Killer truck either way.

    :thumbsup: I like the shell more and more everyday haha. Also pictures dont really do the front clip justice. it flows nicely with the size of the truck.

    I'm in live with your truck! Also, any more upgrades planned or is the truck "finished"?

    Just gotta buy some sheet metal so my friend can sheet the bed holes? back together. Then the fender liner/mud flaps will go on. After that the bed/bedcage gets sprayed with some bullet liner. Once those things are all done I will start collecting cage parts like tubing, seats, harnesses, etc. After 4 years it is soooooo close to done haha.

    On the other hand, if you look further into the future there will be a whole new Homebuilt front kit that is a few inches narrower and some 18" triple bypasses in the rear to cycle the full 21.5".

    Right on it works great. A slight amount of extra vibration but not bad. Just beware when you do the motor mounts, any 2 pieces of metal on your truck that are close together will most likely rattle due to the extra vibes.
