    Any reason why you left holes when boxing the frame? Wouldn't that just make it harder to paint and easier to rust?

    it adds strength, I am going to eventually weld 1 3/4 tubes in there but i need to get the shackles off first. I am driving down to LA tomorrow to buy all the rest of the stuff i need then hopefully can finish by mid next week.

    He's gonna fill them with small sections of tube to tie the boxing in to the original frame rail.

    Went to kartek yesterday, bought everything but bedsides and limit straps. Cut all the old hangers off I don't need, and now it is time to build the mounts. I will be working all weekend and hopefully will have the suspension cycled and ready to start the bed cage by next week

    got the bump cans tacked up last night, then gusseted, welded and painted today. Shock tabs are on, all there is left to do is the bump pads, beef up, and clean up the shackle hangers a little more, then start the cage. I should start to get the holes cut in my bed tomorrow so the only thing left to do is the cage and will hopefully have that in by saturday.
