This is a fantastic rig - my wish list for what I'd like to do with my truck just ballooned looking at your lists of mods

I love how much you were able to accomplish with this build. Really curious about how you wired the axle swap. Have you documented that here?

The elocker is just 2 wires, power and ground. Extremely easy.

wow, epic build! lot's of inspiration from this. How do you like rack set up over the main cabin? Curious to know how solid the attachment to the truck is with those "clamp" style feet?
The clamp style is great. Better than drilling holes in the roof. Especially in Pacific NW.

Awesome build! If you get a chance, post some interior pictures. I am curious as to how everything is set up, also on how the window nets are attached.

Thanks. Inside is kind of a mess, but...the window net is on with adhesive velcro.

Just picked up a utility shell like this for my 2016 - kept my diamondback tonneau cover just in case but you've given me a lot of inspiration. What a sexy rig!

Did you read his list of mods? It says right there who built it.

Thanks for asking. My rear bumper was custom made by District Fab in Hillsboro, Oregon. However, WAM makes a multi-carrier rear bumper if you have a difficulty locating a decent fab shop in your area. Custom Multi-Carrier
Thanks for taking the time to reply. I used a different search engine the first time and couldn't find the company's site. I searched using Google this time and was able to find it. I'll hit up some shops.
