    I know... I get OCD when I have a project in my head that I want to see come to life. Dean did what a normal thinking practical person would do:
    Make room for the tires....

    I have to make everything a monumental undertaking...:rolleyes:

    The truck surely has changed over the years. I bought her six years ago this month. And to think I was going to sell it last year. I am glad I didnt because this truck is a blast to drive!

    Yea only problem is the flimsy flares. I think I may have found a solution though...

    I used the clips to put them back on but at first I just reused the old ones. I bought new ones from eBay and they are alot tighter. There are also foam pieces on the inside of the flares that I am re-using. That has helped with the flimsy flares.

    Nice truck, both Craig's & Dean's flares look sick, I really hope to cram 35s with my 3" lift one day.

    truck looks good man! seen it on expedition as well a few times.

    really like your tool box. you would not happen to have a model number or what ever for it would you? also do you have it locked in some how or just setting in the bed? i have been thinking about the ammo cans, but now think i will just get a small box like you have.

    A few weeks ago I was up there picking up the camper shell. My sons were hungry from the 1.5 hour drive up there so we stopped at crackdonalds.

    I had an old set of 1st Gen mud flaps and decided to put those onto the armortech bumper. I used the stock holes in the metal that holds onto the rubber portion of the mud flaps. I then lined up those holes onto the armortech bumper, threw some nuts and bolts onto there and bam! 2nd gen with some 1st gen flavor!

    On the first gens, these stock flaps actually mount on the other side of the truck, so the one on the drivers side of my truck is actually the passenger side flap
