That truck needs a lot of fucking love

It needs a windshield, paint job and a new tail gate. Mechanically it's sound. I did find my box of pulleys and a belt for it when I cleaned the garage though, so I'll probably handle that soon. Rear shocks as soon as I send the rebuild kits to @Airdog and I'll likely pick up the recall leaf pack from @lord helmet . Then probably just pick up some 5100s for the front, throw these TC uppers on just because I have them, flush the brake system, and call it a day for awhile.

You are 2nd gen shortbed? I have a set of rear bedsides that are cut for a high clearance wasting away next to the shed. They are magnetic grey but someone gave them to me and was keeping as spares, but I've decided if the stock get trashed it's going glass. SO in the longest round about way, if you could use them...I'll trade for some tshirts and stickers. *cough*. (or anyone else want some free besides??) I have some pics somewhere, they are just the sides, no trim.

He’s got an access cab so they won’t fit

If I ever go back to stock that’s what I’d need. But that ain’t happening anytime soon so :noidea:

oof, swing and a miss. I couldn't remember if he was DCSB or AC. I was lazy and didn't want to break out the google-fu to find it or recall where I saw it last on here.

Ya know I just reread that they’re cut for a high clearance... so I couldn’t use them to go back to stock

Damned near. If I ever drive enough to wear out these street tires I might pick up some 32" ATs then i might start using it for trips that don't require 4wd. I'd have to wire in a live port for the fridge and get a jump pack for back up.
