A lesson in adversity, resilience, and discipline

We have discussed this between the two of us before

Per his comment "you have race seats? You're more built than I am" haha

But thank you
I love his truck build for sure

 

Sexy!

 

Just need to figure out how to close my whee wells back up, every time I drive in the rain or mud it throws it off my tires and onto my back window and makes it impossible to see.
I need to find a local store that sells sheets of various plastics and or rubbers so I can make something

 

If we had something thin enough and pliable, I'd hook ya up. We just don't use anything that thin.

 

I mean anything you can toss my way is useful, I can always try to cut the stuff I need to size, especially for that spot I showed you between the bed wall and bed cage

But I totally get you not having anything small, hell if you have a chunk or two big enough I'd even like to try making those pieces to blend the fender and bumper

 

That's probably more possible with what we have on hand.
Gotta remember, what we have is tough enough to withstand thousands of pounds of junk hammering it in various types of mines in a multitude of environments. Thin isn't exactly our thing haha

Personally, I do have a roll of rubber isolation padding. About 6" wide and plenty long enough for the width of your bed. Should be adequate for that. It's probably 1/8" thick

 

I still have no idea what you do, I just know you have rubbers

 

I work in IT for a conveyor component accessory manufacturer. We don't make the belts, but we make everything else involved. https://www.richwood.com/

 

Very cool build

 

Thanks man

 

You need a spare mount

 

Got one, spare stays in the bed

 

I think he means an actual mount, not a ratchet strap haha

 

It's set up with two anchors on the side of the bed cage and it holds my max tracks in place

I set it up to keep the weight centered in the bed and then I have anchors at the rear of the bed for anything else.
I had debated on moving the tire to the tail gate but I like using my back up camera and I still haven't gotten a rear bumper

 

@Caboose117
I have about 20' or so of 1/2" x 7" MSHA rubber. I'm gonna keep a little of it, but you can use what you need from it. Should be plenty to go around.
Along with the thinner stuff I have too, we should be able to eliminate a lot of vibration noises and fill some gaps.

 

Sweeeet
Well currently I'm trying to finish up wiring these rock lights you're welcome to come hang out

 

We can have a mod day at my place next weekend if you want. I gotta move the rest of my junk this weekend and officially be in there.
