    I would love to watch someone hack their fenders like that. I'll be taking notes, too!

    Hi, I saw you are still using stock OR wheels with spacers and 285s, that's the route I'll be taking until I can fund some wheels.. Question, any issues at the alignment shop? I went to discount and they said they wouldn't touch my truck with spacers..

    My personal opinion... Discount Sucks! I have had the spacers for close to 5 years now and they have been great. Rotations are done either at the dealer or a Peerless Tyre Co. where I buy my tires. No problem with alignment however I did buy spacers for all 4 corners not just the front. Also make sure to get a Hub Centric spacer if you go this route.

    Sure thing. Well let me get the garage wiring done and we can figure something out in April for this.



    Good now I will have two sets under my belt and by the time I am ready to cut mine I will be an expert.
    :D

    Well this weekend decided to the get the bed box painted. I needed to tone down that shiny Aluminum. :D

    Much better in Flat black and not that hard. Just wire wheeled the entire thing to give the paint some grip and shot with a couple of coats of flat black.

    Added a divider to hold extra fluids:

    Gear oil, ATF, Motor Oil, and Anti Freeze. Still got some room:

    All done! :)
