Thanks! The entire truck looks better with them on it. Figured I have had the truck since 2002 and its time for wheels.

hey bro
totally lovin the build
Too bad about the welder
Love the wheels, very sweet

I would say though, to prevent cracking I would nt use any filler on the front substructure, like the inside of your wheel wells , it should be seam sealer cuz it will flex, ya got lots o steel there but you will have flex, and polyester filler (bondo) will crack, let moisture in , and rust, seamsealer isnt perfect either but thats what it is for. Would be a shame to see such a sweeeeet job under there go south after some use, paint sticks to it very well also, 3M makes a good product.
If there was an area that you couldnt reshape in steel, use a short strand glass filler, I prefer perfect steel, but sometimes a little wont hurt.

Sorry dude just wanna see it done right, everything else is soo kick ass!!
As ya said learnin as ya go, and always here to help.

Thanks for the comments and the tips on how to do it. Yeah I just did a little of the work before. I was a few years younger and just always had buddies to most of the work. I did more ofthe easier stuff. But now Im wanting to do more of the build and thank you for the tips and advise of how to do some things. Thanks again. Thats why I like this site!
