Default new body panel options

For everyone thats interested. Fiberwerx is now selling the 2013 short course bodies for the dakotas. Sick!!! Im sure if you contact them you could get just the bedsides or hoods or whatever. But they are race fit parts. So fabrication is required...

Yes. I already have fenders. But im contacting them about bedsides. I was going to use 2013 ram bedsides but these body lines match up better. And maybe after the long travel ill get the full one piece front clip....ill be resuming the long travel project in a month now that im settled in my new house build thread to come!

Yay! excited about the long travel. Im thinkin in a few years (10) I could be done with my dirtfab/frenix inspired long-travel hemi-dak. I am wondering if you could clear a good size tire and long travel just by pulling the fenders?

You cant pull the fronts but I clear 33s in the back with pulled fenders. And when I say "clear" I actually mean tuck lol

Just the way front fenders are designed....can't really pull them and make it look good. Beds are easy because the outer skin can be cut away from the actual bed.

I cut my fenders. About 2" all the way around and 3" at the bottoms. I will probably end up trying to roll them out a little; especially if I end up with a 285 width.
