Thanks for the comments.....I'm very excited to get this build finished. I just got my frame rails so I should have the truck assembled sometime this weekend. That is all but the cab...that is going away to get painted as soon as everything is sanded again! As for my friends I'll try to get them involved but no promises!

They do come with stock rails but if ya want them longer ya have to get aftermarket ones. Ya can get them at gardentrucking.com. I'm not sure how much tho
