Thanx for the compliments guys. I built it with taking it to the dunes and desert in mind. I go to both alot so i wanted to build something me and the GF could go out there comfortably. First outing was Glamis and it did pretty good. The front end handled great but the rear shocks need some revalving.

As far as the white fenders go, im not really concerned with paint as i am performance right now. After i cab cage it i think im gona paint the whole truck. Right now im happy with the way it looks.

Like an early version of the Raptor. Looks good. Before you paint, I would match up the molding on the bed and cab. Never jumped a vehicle, looks expensive though.

Ya kinda is like a Raptor but mine will perform just as good at almost half the price and i can say i built it The body lines are as strait as its gona get though. Mounting fiberglass bedsides on a bed is proly one of the hardest friggin things to do! PITA

Me and my buddy built it. Its made from about 18-20ft of .120 wall DOM tubing cut, bent, and notched on to plates at the begining of the frame rails. I havent really nerfed anything yet with it though. I made it mostly to hold the lights and smash down brush in the desert. It actually sticks out to far forward cause on steep inclines ive stuffed the front end a few times. Im thinking about cutting it off, removing the factory bumper and remounting it closer to the grill.
