    I found this thread finally!
    Your truck is amazing!
    I think our trucks look a little similar.

    I'm interested in knowing more about how you coated your frame. How did you prep it and how did you paint it? As in, did you just use a paint brush and hit what you could reach or did you pull stuff apart to reach it? I'm asking because I wanna do that to my truck now lol.

    1500? That must be just for the labor,right? The stealthbox alone is 600-700 and the ZRs are at least 475. The amp is around 800. Plus the dynamat, rear speakers, headunit, camera, sirius, wiring, etc..

    I have to admit I'm very jealous. That is the exact setup I would go with if I had the extra $.

    I used a wire brush on a cordless drill and knocked off all the rust down to bare metal, used acetone to wipe all the surfaces to degrease it, sprayed rustoleum black spray primer, then rolled the frame with the herc. The areas I couldnt roll I brushed. I covered every place I could possibly cover without taking it totally apart. It has held up great- well with the effort IMO.

    Yep, just labor. It's very good, quality stuff and the install was top notch. I'd do it all over (hurt the pocket book though!)

    Crazy! Yep, she works at Red Wheel a couple days a week, sugar momma! I haven't had the jeep out too much this summer, to damn hot, but we've had the van to Moab, UT, Colorado a couple times, and have a couple more trips planned.

    Haha I'm surprised I got that right I havn't been to Red wheel in a while. I've driven through Moab on a trip from Roseville CA back home to MO. Stopped in Durango CO to visit my cousin and loved UT and west CO, well all of CO for that matter. First time I'd been there in the summer did some amazing mountain biking. But I'm going to try to make a point to get out to Colorado this winter when I have a month off school. Or maybe somewhere north near Canada? who knows :D

    By chance did you get the new FrontRunner Slimline Roof Rack for the cab too? Now that they have one for our trucks,?///

    Could you also put up a parts list of your one for the camper too so I can order the same?
