not much truck pics as in pretty stuff, but pics of a truck doing what it's meant for lol, hauling and working.

Had 43/44 boxes of the thick nail down hardwood, roughly 40-60lbs. per box, and pics don't show how she was down in the back but you get the idea, I usually have more gap between tire and fender in back then I do up front, although the front has raised some due to the weight in back I think. Only 40 psi in the rear tires, and 60 psi in the air shocks, would have been more but the service station PAY compressor wasn't strong enough. Still done good, 65 mph going up a 12-14 percent grade, no problems kept climbing on up in speed.

That's my dad in the pic lol. Also if you notice there's not 43-44 boxes in the pics, my uncle already had one or 2 unloaded while I was trying to get pics.

Uh Oh. Dave not paying attention again. This was the roll bar out of the blue truck C4 bought a few weeks ago. Swims went and picked it up from C4 and its been modified to fit his GMT400 from a Square.

LOL yea it's c4's old black and blue rollbar, stripped and shined up some. I used some chrome decal/tape over the welded rust spots. I ran out gotta get another roll tomorrow to finsih it up.

aint bad for what I paid for it at all.

my front push/bull bar is supposed to be delivered on the 30th. of nov. and the step bars the next day, first of dec.

Hard to say when I'll be able to get them put on though, going to get another matching set of lights to run on the bull bar though.
