I don't post up much here... but I went and drove around a friend's property this weekend with the big truck, and thought I'd post up a few pics!

that looks good.
what is the measurment between your tailights? (how much did you narrow it?)
is the bed 8 feet long? or did you shorten it?

I narrowed it all the way to the frame, so whatever width that is. About 3 feet I think. I bobbed about 8-9" out of the bed when i dovetailed it. You can still see the cuts, at least on the passender side. One of my friends was supposed to clean up the bodywork... but he never got around to it. Also.. the front end is narrowed all the way to the radiator, as you can tell. The front fenders aren't too pretty being bent in as far as they are... but it will get bashed in pretty soon anyways, so I'm not worried.

are your A pillar section of your cage made out of 2 tubes? and they look to be 2 different diameters too,,,if those tubes brake inword at that weld, your going to ram your head directly into those busted tubes,:shaking:
i would redo that cage first,,, above all else,,,

haha yeah... the cage will be ripped out and redone really soon, before I do any real wheeling.
