Your truck looks great! Nice to see you wheeling it already. I sent you a PM

Thanks cj5walt and 79blue
When I decided to build my tube bed I put alot of thought in it to make it functional, I wanted taller sides and solid metal panels wear my gear wouldnt get cover as much in mud or rain going down the road, Im still going to put a tailgate on it and relocate my taillights since I got my side panels on.

Went to Uwharrie today and was playing around Kodaik Rock, and I bent the left front leaf spring mount about 1/2in backwards and my power steering pump started spraying fluid out of the front seal so thats 2 pumps I have killed
I'll get some damage pics up soon.

Duals are the best upgrade I ever made to my rig, you will definitely enjoy Low/Low.

Yeah my dads 85 toyota has dual cases and driving his is what made me make my mind up to go with duals

I picked up my extra Tcase today (thanks to 79blue)

When I get these drive shafts done I'll be ready to hit the trails again. So let me know when the next wheelin trip is.

Well after getting my Driveshafts fixed which I got done at Olivers Custom Driveshafts, went to uwharrie weekend before last the first trail I hit my power steering pump went out again thats 2 pumps in less than 6 months, so I decided to go ahead and upgrade to the trail Gear kit and it is awesome it is a big difference between a stock pump and this one, I got this kit from ECGS came with pump, pully, belt, bracket, lines, resivoir, and steering cooler

Here is a pic of the new pump installed
