Thank you for the words of encouragement.


Just enough left over for the extra hanging front steps.




The older truck doesn't have this bump. I think they're turn signals? The whole "shelf" should ideally be removed on the driver's side, but I've decided to leave it for the sake of structural integrity.




I've tested many ways of mounting the fender sections. I made a mounting system holding it with magnets from the top, but it ultimately wasn't stiff enough. Finally ended up removing most of what I did earlier and simplified it. A plate on the left side, a box for electronics on the right side. Mounts to the chassis rails with 2 screws.






One of the most difficult tasks is making this stuff in a way that physically possible to mount it. Here's my solution for removing the rear steps to access the screws for mounting the fenders to the chassis.








Foldable ladder for the back.
