thanks Rob!
okay scored some niche 17's last night so I can work on getting the bed on again also. Gave $150 for them and there in good shape for the age so these will work till the truck is done.
also have a 4runner bumper now as well, just missing the rest of it..lol

thanks fellas!
I've just got to round up another 80-90 bucks for about 20' of .188 wall 2x3 The 30' I built the back out of cost $140 with a little bit of a discount. In my area we get raped for steel
Cable the line is all copper, stainless might be in the future once the bulk of the truck is done. Also I had about three weeks of driving on the back half with the 444's and loved them there very quiet and just a few seconds slower than the 480's.

I also see a nice de-walt sawzall over there..nice!!!when it comes to tools,you can buy the same thing over &over,or you can buy a de-walt and be done with it

it's all good that's one of the reasons I kinda would like to do stainless, it would go with the stainless tank a lot better. But one thing for sure it will always be better then nylon. I get this copper from work for something like 70-80 cents a foot, which is a good thing cause I used up close to ten feet to make the bends exactly how I wanted.
The sawsall is patiently awaiting to cut some more frame. I need to get a long blade and cut out the tranny member so she sits flat out. The front lca member is sectioned already waiting on bag placement and I'll get it wrapped up.
