    Lets see some full size pictures...

    I'd have to measure, but something like that. I think the mid-rib is 2x6 and the front rib is 2x8, because the floorpan is nowhere near flat.

    Lets see some full size pictures...

    After years of reading, I finally got a truck last year, and these are some pictures from a 2 week trip through the SouthWest. I really appreciate that it's 90% stock, it looks stock, like a Soccer-Mom SUV, and it still fits in the parking garages when it's on DD duties. It takes about 2 hours...

    Is Rockwell still making Entabulators?

    When I was working there, they had switched from turbo encabulators to retro encabulators. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RXJKdh1KZ0w But that was 10 years ago.
