Lol well 2 things my truck aren't going to see are snow and heavy mud.

I'll see what I can find at the junkyard, but for sure, I'm going to get the rear fenderwells painted when the bed comes off.

Its at least 4". Most 2/4 kits only drop 3.5" in the back because of clearance issues with the bed support rail.

Thats gotta suck to live up north with all that road salt.

trey318 - truck looks awesome.

95MaroonMonster - I'd have to agree with you salt does suck, I try to wash the truck more in the winter to keep up with the salt which somedays seem impossible when its really cold.

LOL I'm one of the idiots you see when it's 5* outside, and they are washing their truck. It happens, and I hate road salt being on my truck, not to mention the cancer it causes is unacceptable in my eyes.
