It doesnt help that I live in the highest part of town. Depending on the weather it will snow at my house and by the time you get to the end of my road about 3 miles or so its raining.

thats why i love where i live, its never too cold to work here. awesome job with the truck by the way. just a few words of wisdom, dont put too many bends in the cage, try to triangulate 90% of it...... its going to be a lot stronger that way. are you going to put anything in place of the rockers?

2x3 or 2x4 box steel sliders are going where the rockers where.

Its not much of an update, but I needed a set of spacers for the front of the truck to keep my tires from hitting the lower links. I got a good deal on a used set of Spidertrax spacers, they showed up today.
