Im pretty sure you might be the guy I talked to at the mall parking lot in Roseville on Sunday. I was looking at the red pickup forsale. I didnt have the heart to tell the dude his truck was junk and he was asking to much for it. And it smelled like pot smoke.

I say get rid of the body lift.

And if its not you that I talked to sorry, nice looking runner.

yeah i remember that truck. looked alright from what i saw but, you dont realy know anything bout it till ya drive, it was a lil tall though.

as for the body lift i will be taking it off soon, i dont like it to ride as high as it is. ill just have to do some fender triming and then put some flares on it.

im building a rear bumper for my runner today. its made of 2x4 rectangle steel and i am going to put of side wings on it to run down the rear end of the quarter panel.

and i have some 2x2 1/8 tubing laying around, do you think this will be thick enough metal for the side wings

ill post some pics of the bumper later tonight.
thanks brian

Looks real good, Clark. Nice work. If you need some ideas about your swing-a-way, find a trailer fab shop and get a 1500lb weld in spindle with the bearings. Page 3 or 4 of my buildup has the info and some pics. It works slick. http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/showthread.php?t=552526

here is a pic of my bumper so far. for mounting i boxed in the end of the frame and braced it on the back side, then the bumper mounts will be welded to the boxed frame.

Good idea, Im still collecting parts to build mine and the back of the frame looks a little weak right there. Nice build, lose the body lift, I used to have one and hated it after I got a lift put on.
