$8.00 for a tire mount is cheaper than Ensenada.

Late-January 2020:
Just going to slide this pic in:
Finally got the sliders welded on. Truly, they are bonafide step-bars, as they are welded to where you would mount the steps. I'll have to add more trussing and sheer plates to have it fully connect to the frame.
More front pics:
Adding more spice to this page!
Got ourselves an aluminum flatbed (8ft) without the headache rack. Right now it looks a bit weird, but change is never understood until it's complete! I honestly look back into my driveway every single time with how she's coming along.
Be sure to tune in as I continue the build! Things at this point should get real interesting, real fast! Where will this build go? ?

I'm digging yours as well! Are those 37s? Looks like I need to make that jump.liking the flatbed
good idea, what's the final plan of use?
The final plan of use will be revealed soon! I'm excited to see it into fruition.
Yep 37s. I have not quite decided my fine use of the fit bed. Real flat bed or fenders with a low deck. Good to see what others are doing.

Sweet truck and build!
Ive got a set of headlights that fit your truck if you're interested. LS430 projectors. I made these for my 3rd gen and pulled them before I sold it (he low balled me.) I'm up in Fort Collins.

It's a super simple deck I got from PJ truck beds. I am stoked with it so far!
Got a link to a build of these?

February 2020:
Custom-valved 2.5" Kings for all four corners came in a couple of weeks ago. I have yet to do any of the other install in the last several weeks as these are (suprisingly) not high on my priority list.
I did also manage to get new HD shackles, custom leaf springs, bump stops, control arms, 3" coil springs, a sway bar, and an ARB twin-compressor in as well. They are currently being neglected in my garage at this time.
Soon, i'll have time to slap these all on.
