And the bedliner I used is Rustoleum brand from Wal-Mart, about $8 per rattle can. Primed with self-etching primer after a lot of sanding first also.

Still looks pretty good to me lol

Hmm I never would have noticed probably. They aren't from China, I was actually pretty impressed with the quality of them for $15.

Ya they don't appear to be OEM but the design is probably due to copywrites or trademarks or whatever. Just like an aftermarket grille is mis shapen around the bowtie vs. an OEM grille.

Looks Good, what brand are those tires? I can't really tell from the pictures. Nice Truck tho, keep up the good work.

 

[ChrisAU]

They are buckshot mudders I believe, gotta find new ones VERY soon.

And I have! 285/75-16 BFG AT's, scored em for a hundred bucks, hopefully I'll get em mounted and balanced tomorrow or Tuesday:

%#WQ*)&$*@$&%...I took it to get the tires mounted and we discovered that the two rear wheels each have a locking lug nut...now I have to take it somewhere that can get those off and then have them mounted and balanced. Wasted an entire afternoon.
