My weekend project

this was my weekend project. (well sunday really.) the ammo cans were in the truck already. i removed those first, and made them mount about 1/2 an inch higher than they do now. previously, they would slam into the bed sides with every bump. i also installed 1" long rubber feet on the back side. now i notice almost no noise from them.

then i moved my axe and shovel. they were mounted previously, but i moved them to get everything to fit better.





next, i made a light bar with some super cheap driving lights from harbor freight. we'll see how they hold up. i have not finished the wiring yet because i have not ordered my switches yet (ooops) but the bar is finished and mounted.

lastly, i made some brackets to mount my hi lift and i installed 2 shackles to the hi lift as well. ( i bought it with winching intentions). i mounted the rubber feet to the backside of these brackets as well, there is limited movement when hitting bumps....thank fully.



and that was my sunday project.

 

Nice looking bed rails.

 

Looks great! It's always good to get a project done on the truck!

Looks good. What are you using to mount your ax and shovel?

 

good job, looks nice

 

i cut a couple pieces of aluminum i had laying around and mounted some quick fist clamps to them.
