    Here is a picture of when I first got it and what it looks like now, I'm plaining on plasti dipping the truck a flat blue. I have one more cancer spot to fix on the other side and extend the bed to match the bottom of the cab.
    Hope you guys like it :D

    I spotted the cab vents right away. Didn't spot the bed seams and other stuff. What's your front ride height at? Just cut coils or mighty max springs or something?

    Good deal. Similar to my setup. I pulled the center leaf and built 4.5" angled blocks. Up front I have 5" mighty max drop coils and 69 camaro shocks.

    How much did you hammer your inner fenders? What tire size you have?

    We have the same setup. Just not the .5 extra in the back. Im right at the border line of having to notch me rear crosd member. Are you not bottoming out your front shocks??

    Front shocks don't bottom out. I run a 215/65/14 front right now. Usually one a hair smaller that rubs less on hard corners. Out back I have an inch til frame hits. Longbed has a 2 piece driveline so no clearance issues on that, except the carrier bearing crossmember being of low.
