Your truck is lookin awesome. I think i'm going to have to get me some of those fenders to. How much work was involved with putting the rear flares on? How much did you have to trim?

theres not much to fitting them, just make sure you have a full day to devote to putting them on and taking them off. the sawzall made short work of the bedsides.

i forget what its called, but the links are 2" wide. the strongest stuff you can buy. im pretty sure they are .25" wall.

brackets from RuffStuffSpecialties.com - Off-Road Fabrication Parts
ball joints from Ballistic Fabrication - Manufacturers of Precision Offroad Fabrication Supplies
heims/bungs from Rockkrawler 4 link kit, bearing, heim joints, heims, joint, jam nut, supply, rod ends

the evolution:
this was about a week after i bought it. a few months later i registered on 4x4parts.com, and about a month after that, i went wheeling with the guys that would eventually sas my truck.

new rims and bfg tires!

custom light bar/clevis mounts


theking made me some sliders

fenders/headlights

intake

exhaust

bumper

winch

beginnings of the solidification:





yay, front was done.

yay, rear was done.

yay, cool truck- "done."
