Thanks man.

Some other things I've done to the truck lately.

Raptor liner tinted with body color and clear.


Raptor liner tinted with body no clear.



Well once again I could not leave well enough alone. If you guys remember I never liked how the column stuck out of the firewall when I installed the 55 dash. The aftermarket mount just looked to busy and I wanted something smooth looking. So I decided to do this.

I made this piece out of sheetmetal and exhaust pipe I had laying around.

Mocked up to see if I liked it better before I commented to it.

Welded in and mocked up and yes I like it much better.

Grinded all the welds, filler, primer and almost done blocking. I will blend the paint in that area and you will never notice the difference.


I did not want the filler in the bed so this is what I came up with. Its a pop up motorcycle filler that I located in the fleetside stake pocket, the one the tailgate is attachked to. I had to figure out the plumbing it was some work but I like it.
