    Looks like I will probably go with these from steelcraft once I get the money. I will paint them with bedliner pf course to get rid of the shiny black finish, but other than that they look good.

    I got mine from truckcandy.com, but I think that the website has since gone under, along. and you actually caught an error in my list for me. hell bent steel is the company that made the spacers that are now on your truck. the tail light guards are made by "4 real steel" (I think they are out of business now too). but 'm sure the ones you found are identical in design.

    Aaaaah!

    power tank aluminum bracket

    no gears yet. may not have the ability to do those until after the move to Maryland. but we'll see, fingers crossed I can get them in sooner.

    pictures of mounting in a minute.

    his garage made me miss mine. a lot of similarities :pout: however, all of my tools should be delivered sometime next week :)

    Powertank Instal.

    This is a 10 lb tank with the bracket to fit. For a while, I was set on a 20 lb tank. but after a lit of though, I decided that if I truly needed 20 lbs of CO2, that two 10 lb tanks was a better way to go. So I may be adding another tank down the road...

    Altered the bracket and mounted it to the bed rack yesterday at Rich's house. Used exhaust clamps to mount, which is actually a little tip I picked up from "Extreme 4x4" on Spike TV a while ago :anonymous: I forget what they mounted, but it's a great use for the clamps. guess they come up with some useful info every now and then :rolleyes:

    got the tank filled afterward at a paintball place down the road. they charge $2 a pound, so after tax, it was $21 and change. not too bad for an on the spot siphon fill (get it siphon filled, not pour filled) while I waited.

    If I relocate my gas can, I should be able to fit a second tank in the same location on the other side
