Well I've been rollin the bubble hood for a little while,but since I put the spindles on,I needed a set of 4x4 fenders for my clearance issues,so I picked up some 4x4 fenders and bumper caps. Now all I need is a bed,lol

I used Krylon Fusion paint on the valance & caps. Stuff is sweet!

Looking very nice Mike. I can see by the bottom pic what you mean about the clearance issues. Another option I might suggest is what I dod with the daughters lower control arms - balljoint moved in 3/4" on each side. Upper control arm moved in the same amount. Definately makes for a little breathing room.

Hey mikey now all you need is a 4x4 box and I know were one is for $$$.$$.You got to phone or pm me to find out .

I don't have $$$.$$ though

Immortal,I took my grinder and trimmed the inside lip of the fenders for a little more room. I also think that the alignment may help with the right wheel,because it's way off. It actually looks like it has positive camber and it has some massive toe out.

Spray the truck...Like with paint...what colour you gonna do??
crazymikey   +1y
high build primer & sealer. Flat black on top & lime green on the bottom with a thin white stripe down the top bodyline.

No paint this year since I hope to get it bagged over the winter. After all is said and done,the purty paint job will be done last,and done profressionally. I just wanna do the black & green for something goofy for this summer.

Don't do it flat black. Its overplayed, hard to keep clean and keeps that under construction feel.

If you do it with sealer you can do it semigloss black..that would be cool

it'll be black and green. only the cowl,roof and everything above the top bodyline will be black. The majority of the truck will be green. And it still is under construction.
