Re: My new ride!!!!

That is the first 4x4 I've ever seen with the 88-98 bed on it. Personally, I like them on lowered 2wds. It just kinda looks...goofey. Glad you're going to go with original!

Re: My new ride!!!!

Nice toy. I wish I could talk my wife into putting a late model bed on the truck I'm building for her but I can't. So do you stock or can you get a 72 step bed? How much if I pick it up at your place? Just shoot me a pm and if you are going to sell the white bed include that price too. thanks

That truck is CLEAN! The bed doesnt look as bad as some Ive seen but I agree with the others, a stocker would look much nicer. Dont forget update pics after the swap...

Truck looks good. The new bed would sure look nice. I'm also a fan of BIG tires on 4X4's. Sweet truck though.

Yeah, yeah, yeah... enough about the bed already! Tim, what are your plans for this one? Thank goodness CounterParts started making those rear fenders a few years ago. You do not see too many 4x4 steppers out there! Keep us posted buddy!

Step or Fleet Now that will be a tuff choice. But probably Fleet with a wood bed floor

350- Auto, factory AM/FM & tilt. It is a really nice truck inside and out. Just have to make up my mind on the bed.
