Much better choice with the Porterbuilt. It might be the angle but it looks like you would have driveshaft issues with the airbagit set up?

I'm going with a two piece drive shaft, I'm using Porter's carrier bearing cross member, so I should be fine.

Wow, truck looked great before. Now, you are just hitting it completely out of the park! Loving the paint on the tailgate. Looking forward to the fully painted pix.

Thanks, I didn't do anything they fit, at that height I have about a 1/4 from the firewall to the tire. I did have to tub the fenders.

That two-tone is subtle in the booth but I bet its gonna pop in the sunlight. Can't wait to see those pics. Nice combo.
