    I'm not in the market for what your offering at this time but don't limit yourself to just those items. I don't know how capable you are but it's good to see your at least trying to make it work.

    Bought his light bar mounts. Got 2 day shipping and all hardware needed for my 50" great fit and can move the truck side to side while holding on. Getting the shock mounts built. Probably end up taking more of my money as the projects develop. Seriously great communication through this whole process!

    I actually can't think of anything right off hand, nobody that I know of right now is making a bolt on version of a rear diff skid for the first gens, so that's something to consider. You could likely expect people to pay around $200 for a new one if your capable of making it. If your only doing smaller stuff obviously stick with what your doing already, light bar mounts, pod light mounts, CB antenna mounts?
    I'll be looking at a way to secure 2 full size spare tires in the bed of my truck if you want to brainstorm that. Without completely losing the whole bed area, like standing them up right and bolted to the sides somehow?

    I assume you can weld? I am looking to fab up some bump towers and possibly lowering my bump contact point so I don't bottom out my rear shocks. I'm local in Claremont/La Verne.

    CBI makes a really nice ditch light bracket that bolts to the hood hinge and you can get a pair for roughly $60 i think? I just got one and used it for my CB antenna mount but I'm sure this guy could produce the same sort of quality product.

    Yeah I thought it was steep as well but the install is very clean and looks great, if one of my hood bolts didnt break I could have had it done in like 30 minutes or less.

    I paid $100 for my pods. I'm not about to pay $60+shipping on some brackets that require me to cut my rain guard just to install!:crazy:

    You don't cut your rain gutter at all. You just put it on the outside.
