Wrapping up the last few odds and ends on the backhalf after bringing the truck home last week. Shakedown in 9 days at Barnwell for the TX4X4 Fall Run.

Looks awesome man.. one thing you might consider.. just to clean things up. Use turn-buckles vs. the ratchet straps. I did that on the old rig, worked great. Old pre-complete photo.

Those are temporary until I can find the correct ones.

Be careful what you ask for.

The spare will be coming off more than likely and the cooler will be swapped out with a K2 that I have in the first pic. I just have brake lines and bump stops to finish at this point and go figure I’m out of shielding gas FML. Never fails.

I’ve hit like as many times as I can with this thing. But now I know what my truck needs!

It needs the @SMKYTXN treatment with that tube bender and links! I volunteer as shop help to learn the art of tube bending.

Sounds like a plan to me!

Chris's rig went up everything last weekend. I was all set up to spot him up the hard spots and he just drove right on by.

Little Red looks great, but she needs tube doors. And Red's work awesome!!

I do have tube doors. Just too lazy to put them on before I left. The half doors will be nice once I’m done with them completely. The reds hook like no ones business when it’s dry.
