Well, I got tired of the truck not fitting in the garage.
I can't work on it until 2:00 a.m. because it would be pretty loud running the chop saw with the doors open:flipoff2:

And what I cut off.
It's just rough cut right now. I plan on finish cutting it and getting my cage installed now. I will still be able to just bolt on a piece of 18 gauge when I need a roof for bad weather.

Try reading the posts and not just looking at the pictures :flipoff2:
PJTPW, this rig is awesome. By far my favorite full size buildup of all time. Can't wait to see pics of it on the trail.
