    I really want to make me own. I think it will pretty easy and much cheaper. Just need to get off my ass and do it hahaha maybe be professional about it and make a CAD drawing first.

    If I knew how to weld and had all of the tools I'd love to. But for now I'll just get Pelfreybilt

    Yeah, luckily I have two friends that are good welders so I usually have one of them help me out. Im getting to be decent at it. Pelfreybilt does make a good one, which always makes me torn on making my own. Save some cash and do the work, or just say F it and buy it. Finding time for projects is hard. I need to make skids currently, since i just got an All Pro apex front bumper.

    Exactly haha, I've got friends that weld but they're too far. I'd rather be within like 10 miles ha.

    But yeah I need to make a new bed rack and a belly skid, which they both can be knocked out in a day each. Just need material and welder :rolleyes: but I'm lazy and never ask

    Little update:

    Went camping two weeks ago with @Mad T , @bryanbyers28 and friends. Had a damn good time from what I remember :drunk:

    It's nice when somebody actually has a camera











    No pictures of @Mad T truck because he didn't send them to me...

    Also got my RAT gas tank skid in, painted it last week and may get it installed this weekend pending camping or not. Didn't snag pics because well I was watching paint dry so I did other things.

    Got my order in with SCS for my rims, still no shipping notification but they're super busy. Hopefully early next week they'll be here :pray:

    And some patches that came in. I find the "asshole" patch very fitting :D

    Hey man, could you do me a huge favor whenever you get a moment? Could you measure from the ground to the bottom of your fender and tell me what height your running in the front and back? Trucks sitting a little low and considering getting new front shocks with a higher spring rating!

    Um seeing I'm rolling like this, I doubt it would give much help until I get my new rims and tires on

    Measure from the center of your hub up to the bottom of the fender. It's a constant point. Also a better way to measure since not all tires are the same size. It might be labeled as a 33 but it really could be a fraction of an inch off in either direction.

    Ordered some parts for my rear oil seal leak. Hope to get that done the weekend after next.

    Also finally ordered some parts to finish up my bussman box that I've had forever :anonymous:

    Probably will order some 2 more switches next paycheck, then maybe some lights here soon :spy:

    Correct packages arrive today, but I have work and the place I'm going to mount closes at 5. So I will mount them up tomorrow after class (and not go back to work :spy: ) then trim some stuff up if need be :D
