I have been working on this truck for quite a while. Originally purchased out of Arkansas, the truck looked like a blind man bagged it. This was no TV dinner. Although the body work was ok, the truck has been re-bagged to lay full frame on 24s. I am currently running 22s but that will change soon.
Quick note - C-Kustoms (or however they misspell their name) do not do good work. The pathetic 6 link that was in the truck when I bought it was a binding piece of crap.
Much love to
Little Mike (former Auto Core fabricator): All of this work was performed by him and is top notch work. Pay the dough and have him bag or fix your bagged ride.
Quick List of Frame Mods:
1) Raised front crossmember and notched frame so the rack will not bind.
2) New front bag and shock mounts with proper gussets.
3) Control Arms raised 2.75"
3) All new 4 link with new bag mounts and drag plates for layin it out.
4) Custom gas tank mounted between rear frame rails
5) Rearend reinforced to prevent axle roll and keep proper pinion angle throughout range of motion.
Body Mods:
1) Welded Roll Pan with hidden hitch
2) Shaved Tailgate
3) Shaved Taillights
4) Shaved Gas Door

Box - I Custom made a bandpass style box in the bed. I hate bandpass boxes but how else do you get 4 12s in a Pickup and still have the back seats. Blow through ports carry the sound from the bed to the cab.
Much more mods to come but for now... Here she is.
01-20-09 (Just ditched the bandpass style box and currently making a fiberglass box that uses the bed for airspace instead of the other way around. - Will post pics of during in and after soon)
Layin Frame (1/4" drag plates in the rear)

If you didn't notice, I was draggin ass and peeled my f'n roll pan. Oh well, the price of draggin is at least some body work. I'll post new pics once I have redone the back.. losing the ugly plate this time.
