I was going to make it so the rest of the sides could go on when I was not towing but I really like it with the short sides. All I would have to do then is make a stubby tailgate. It looks kick a$$ backed in under the camper. I will try to get a pic of that in the morning since I am taking the camper in for service. I will post pics of the elky.

A stubby tailgate would be cool. Those who know would understand you have it set-up to pull a 5th wheel.

buggy5872 10-02-2012 06:51 AM

Re: Big Bertha build thread
 
Only problem with the tail gate is all I have are mint fleetside tailgates to cut up.....kind of breaks my heart to do it but, sometimes thats the only way. would make one from scratch but I want the chevrolet writing on it.

Re: Big Bertha build thread
 
i'd just hunt around for a less than great tailgate and save the mint ones.

I wonder if Mar-K could get you the pieces to do a custom one (sell you a disassembled aftermarket one)???

I thought about it and am going to call them

buggy5872 10-02-2012 02:00 PM

Re: Big Bertha build thread
 
That was a quick call. they are not allowed to do it because there are strict rules from GM.

Web shots has been sold so I do not know what will happen to my pics as of December 1. I have been converted over to some stupid smile photo site and now my pictures are all just thrown together and you can not link to them. now I am going to have to find new place for them. Anyone know how to change the photos in previous posts?

arturo7 10-03-2012 10:55 AM

Re: Big Bertha build thread
 
Did you upload the photos to your gallery?

buggy5872 10-03-2012 11:45 AM

Re: Big Bertha build thread
 
I have probably 200 pics in various albums. I might just download my pictures to my home computer and say the heck with online photos......
