is the bumper law that it can't be higher than X measured from the top or the bottom, because if it were bottom, move the bumper back up, and add a 2" piece of tubing or something to the bottom...

if it's top, gap guard it

looks sick though!

Ya when i but the bedsides on they were the exact same height measured from the floor and frame so the floor must be off level i decided to just match the body lines instead.

Ya i probably wont run a doubler just end up regearing to 5.13.

And bumper law is to the bottom if i do move it up i will loose alot of support from the bumper so im just gonna leave it until i make a new one.

And im goin to the dunes may 21 for senior skip day.
