Re: Another dump box variation

I believe it was $1000USD plus shipping for the setup. Send me a pm if you'd like to talk about it.

Re: Another dump box variation

Don't forget that if you use aftermarket suspension you will have to mod or make your own prop rod mount.

Re: Another dump box variation

The pics from inside the shop show the color best. I think the middle ones make it look more orange than it is but :confused: Bottom pics are definitely bleached out. The next orange they had looked...

Re: Another dump box variation

I tried to talk Rob into having it done black and using the powder coat for the black stripes. No dice, though. I hope the closest color orange they have is close enough!:eek:

Yes, sick minds do...

Re: Another dump box variation

Well it's there and should be back early next week. Just like I figured there is no perfect match in powder coat. yellows, orange, REALLY ORANGE or fluorescent orange where the choices. Oh well,...

Re: Another dump box variation

Cover is made. All parts are torn down, washed and headed for coating. Fingers crossed the orange they have is close enough!

Re: Another dump box variation

Thanks Mark. I kind of thought I would try to make up a cover for it but I guess some are belt drive. What do you think? Yes/no?

Re: Another dump box variation

Re: Another dump box variation

Rob said it's a Ford orange but I know the powder coater won't have the exact color. I think they have an orange that's close though.

Re: Another dump box variation

A little update. The front is really tall on this one because it will be using a custom KW cab. The modified cab is 147mm tall from frame rail to roof. I believe a stock king is about 120mm. Anyway,...
