Update: Bedcage, Stand up spares, Tint and Blacked out lights.

Its been a while since ive posted the updates on my truck but heres what ive done to it since my last update (which was my prerunner mid travel front end)

-Dual stand up spare tires (bought it from some guy for $75 and it bolts in)
-Bolt in bedcage that I made myself (im proud of it )
-Professional tint job (No more skull tint)
-Blacked out my tailights again (old stuff was starting to fog up and peel off)

I have the shocks for the bed cage but they are pretty dinged up so im just painting them before i put them on my truck, hence why they arent on the bedcage yet. and my spare tires are chained together to the spare tire rack so that nobody can just un do the ratchet straps and walk away with my tires.

The shocks are 14" Bilstein 7100 Reserviors. It just looks like a big arc because i wanted to keep the upper shock mount at 19" above the bed, and i had to make it arc higher because of the shock tab and the tube thickness.....so it looks like it could fit 16's, (and probably could fit them easily) but it actually is meant for my 14's.

Justin (Shaklakan) has a bedcage that was professionally made for 14's so i just copied the measurements from his cage to make mine haha, a lot less measuring for me.
