I bought this truck off of a guy on this site in december, was a stepside with dually fenders on the rear and i didnt like that. Bought it just to push snow with but it worked good all winter and i love the fact that it is fuel injected,so i think im gonna fix it up a lil this summer.

so far what i have done is fix the frame on it (due too it about rusting in half) and built a flatbed.

Ive got a set of good fenders, doors and my buddy has a core support for it that is going in it shortly. hopefully trent posts some pics for me shortly!

You will learn to wear a hat facin backwards if you do much weldin, them cherries hurt loll You can also turn the hat to cover your ear, it REALLY hurts when a cherry rolls down in there  ;D

   I would find me a nice heavy piece of boiler plate to fill the gap between the rear frame rails just like on the heavy trucks and weld it up real solid, then get some heavy angle and make some mudflaps to go on there. You gonna run this on the street..?

RedneckMudder

yea itll be on the street, it has mounts for mud flaps just dont have them on it yet
