    Plan: Build the truck to explore remote areas and pull a camping trailer.

    I do not like the limited access the top creates, the solution was a windoor on the drivers side. I will swap the passenger side to a windoor as well in the future

    This homemade mount supports a Husqvarna forest axe and a shovel.

    I really like the access to these tools from the windoor.

    I like to keep a few rods in the truck all the time and will bring many of them on fishing trips so i built this to keep them safe. I utilized the same bolts that hold the Thule rails to the shell
    so i didn't have to drill any additional holes.

    I scored these bed supports on craigslist from a guy local to me. Bentrodder built them i like that the vertical gusset is close to the tailgate and the upper radius fallows the bed perfectly

    The truck rides nice and wheels well stock, it cant stay that way though.

    After building a lot of trucks i learned buy the good stuff first and save some time so KINGS!!

    Mounted some 265/75/16 bfg km2s after installing the suspension. The truck is performing better than expected and can now fly down dirt roads so smoothly. Now its time to go wheeling!
