silver07taco's build

Yes sir, Mines not a show truck so might as well go for a strong build that might look ugly.

 

If you go with the custom bed tire carrier, keep me in mind. I am interested in seeing what you come up with. At this point in time I would like to keep my cover, but we can talk about that at a later time.

That was a bummer to hear about the rear bumper, that was one of the items on my list.

 

Will do I would like to do something custom that I can have my space tire(full size when I get one) and my hilift a shovel later on down the road. Yea it sucks to here about the bumper, I think I am still goin to go with it just not with the space tire and mod it to fit right I dont know yet its only 400+shipping

 

I am goin to go with the rear bumper I found before, I read some bad stuff about the company and I talked to the guy about this and hes telling me thats never happend, I dont know what to belive but hes telling me its goin to fit, and I have a grinder a bansaw and I can get a cutoff torch if its needed

 

Yea we were just lookin at that, I think longbow was looking into it, I am goin to build a custom bed rack to hold the space, hilift and shovel.

 

I got my bumper orderd , Lets hope it all goes well when I install

 

No I just got the bumper, I found something on TTORA I am goin to build, A big rack to hold the spare tire(when I get one) Hi lift, shovel and a few ammo cans for random gear.

Similar to this just not full lengh of the bed so I can still get to my tool box

IM sure I can build one if I wanted to, I am a pipe fitter and I can get my hands on a welder and all the other stuff to build one and get the pipe for free. If my bed rack dont work out the way I plan I think I am goin to head in the direction,

Question for you did you get the rear timbrens, I think it was you that said you got them, Im goin to want to upgrade the ones in the rear with the extra wight.

 

I am goin to start on my bed rack after x mas, I have two pieces of 1 1/2 Schedule 40 pipe I got from work, I am goin with a 40x50 rack cheaper then building one and the spare tire kit so I can mount the spare, I have the hi lift witch I am goin to mount to the side and a shovel on the opposite side, I am moving the rear lights to the back of the rack, I am goin to get two jerry cans and mounts one for gas one for water and two ammo cans on the back end of the rack,Ill have some pics here soon.

Everyone have a nice safe holiday!

 

Redid my OBA wasnt happy with my first set up.
Before

After



I like this set up alot more and I have my tool box back

 

is that the viair constant duty?? how do you like it? I have the same kit coming and am planning on mounting the tank in a similar place

 

Now that is alright, what size compressor motor did you use?
I really like that idea and may look into it when warmer weather comes.

 

Yea, I havent got a cahnce o use it so far it works like a champ, Only hard part was mounting the tank, Couldnt get my finger up to put the nut on and kept hitting my head on the spare tire crank, But its on and it works.

 

Thanks, I bought a kit that had everything, Not sure on the size but it can put out 130 psi, Just enought for me to just fill my tires.

 

Thanks, I bought my truck in january and My birthday is in january it was ment to be

 

UPS just droped off my rack ill have that to work on tommorow, Post some pics up too.

 

Thanks, I tryed what you have goin on but didnt want to pull the box up so I put it right behind the rear bumper.

 

Bed racks done.Still need the mounts for the shovel but for the most part done.
