    Far from good. I can stick weld with a grinder nearby. Will have help from father in law if/when I need it.

    Looks nice. Mind if I ask how much? I just got an older Ram single cab to drive to work. Was hit and run before I got it and has a salvage bed. I think bedliner would clean it up alot.

    Rode through Martin Dies this morning. Pretty neat place, may be a good excuse to get another mountain bike. I know I could use the excersise. :anonymous: Was only about 15 min away.

    Thanks bud sounds good. I was a Barnwell for Jambo this past year. Hung out with the DFW crew for most of it. Did more riding than driving since the truck isn't really ready to wheel hard without being a burden on other people and funds were low at the time to fix anything broken. I did get to ride with @trekker and @ETXTacoma in their rad rigs which was a blast. Look forward to meeting you guys at some point to shoot the shit and drink coldbeer.

    Awesome! Yeah we had a big enough group this year from the area we ended doing our own group trail runs. Have you rolled through lukberton recently? I think I've seen your truck

    And it was fun having y'all in the truck for an eventful night ride!!!

    Steven* lol

    I think it's because I'm like in the middle of DFW and Golden Triangle, and both groups are fun to hang out with for sure. GT is a little more on the shenanigans side and DFW is a little more laid back... so it's a good mixture... once the new rear end and all that is in... I will be more on the shenanigans side as I know I won't have to worry about blowing up a rear end.

    Oil based uses mineral spirits. You're gonna need to thin it probably 50/50, maybe more. The good news is that you can thin oil base past 30% (you cannot do that to latex based or it will shear in the spray gun).

    Basically, thin as much as you need to spray.

    Avoid rustoleum DIY. Herculiner seems to have the best reviews.
