Well, damn, that sucks. It's only two bolts too!

Changed the discs, inner wheel bearings, and pads. Brand new JVC speakers in the front, and I cleaned it out I also made a walkaround video

Looks cool, I am jealous that you have access to such toys as a welder

I didn't know I had these other pictures. Short term memory thang, maybe.

Ran out of gas and just used flux core.

These should give you good idea of what was done.

The gussets have a backing plate that is not shown so top is completely tied in.

yanked the stock fuel lines out, and found out Dodge got me the wrong return fuel line. They got me one for a long bed, and I have a short bed 1' too long.

(quick connect is broken that hooks to the fuel canister for factory return line, hence replacement. also no longer need stock feed line as I have an aftermarket fuel system...return line is still needed though.)

When I built my truck I had to replace all brake shoes rotors and one caliper. Every since then , my rear brakes have squeeked at slow speed.. "VERY ANNOYING" , yesterday I purchased new shoes for the rear . After removing the shoes on the driver side rear , I noticed the top tab "CLIP" was rubbing the rotor..Bent it back out put old shoes back in and got my $57.00 back.. No more noise. Savin the change..
Last week after searching 6 months I finally found a Fiberglass Tonnoau cover .. A leer 800 for $400. Bucks with Keyless entry..I Love it !!!
