It's all home made. I found some bend up tubing at the recycling yard and after cutting and welding up, here we are.

Very badass! I really like the front D-rings... looks super stout. Good job!

What is that on the body, all linex or rhino liner?

I love absolutely everything about your truck. I bet it was worth the 2 year wait.

Cool

2 years on and off - you guys know how it goes. NO Money or NO Time.
Eventually it was finished. Day I've finished me and my buddies were driving around my house like it was an oval track. Only in the morning I've found out (hangover) how much damage (on the property) we've made - that was cool.
Now its time to take Da Beast to the desert and get it familiar with the trails.
So far everything works good.
Bedliner I've used is the Plasti-Cote (I'm not quite sure now) you can buy in Wal-Mart for about $45.00 per 1 Gallon. This stuff is great. Non toxic - does not smell at all. Easy to clean when fresh - water. Dries quickly. When damage occurs just use some left overs to cover it. Once dry its tough. I recommend it if someone wants to make their truck looking like a Zombie Hunting Truck (that's what my friends call it).
Gas shocks improved the ride tremendously. That was money well spent.
Good luck with all your projects fellows
