Project Primer!
Well I'm bored so I'll post up some picture of my trucks build!
Well it started off as this!
Then I replaced a couple of body panels and painted it PRIMER..
Next up was the body lift!
Trimmed the fenders to fit 35s and to get rid of some of the rust on the bed and fenders and bedlined the bottom part!
Then I swapped in an explorer welded 8.8 with 5.13s that I got from JohnnyU.
And also put a new set of springs in with chevy drop shackes
Then my friend put my truck into a pole backwards and did this
He bought me a new bed that weekend and since my rear bumper was destroyed I decided it was time for a new bumper and since I had the steel a new front was made at the same time...
I added in a light bar and spare tire carrier sometime in there...
Next up the front fell off!!!
And a 6 inch skyjacker lift fell on!!
The time line on that might be a little bit off. I noticed that i had a destroyed bumper in a couple of those pictures b4 i made the new ones...

ok not trying to be an *** but i hope you just painted flat paint over primer..
Primer is NOT a metal protectant like paint its porous, thus why its primer its porous so paint sticks to it and holds water and helps metal to rust..
there is paint that looks like primer tons of it and still protects the paint...

Well I've been bored since I don't have a job so I've been spending sometime working on my truck.
I got new turn signal housings that are chrome but i had to fix one of them with a piece from one of mine so the bottom part of both of them is painted black.
I also painted my frame
And I painted my tailgate and one of the Ford letters fell off that aluminum plate that is on it so I took the rest of them off and I wire wheeled and clear coated it. Gave it a cool looking design.
I also raised up my hitch about 2 inches since after the body lift and having made my bumper up high it was annoying that it hung down so low. I also added 2 lights to so I can actually see in reverse.
