Tim, the frame looks great. I'm looking to get that done to mine. What did your coater charge you? Did you have them do the suspension parts too?

Very Nice! What's if for? A shortbox or long bix 4X4? Is that a fifthwheel mount on the frame? (looks like you will need a bigger garage.)

The frame is for a shortbed . The fifth wheel part I don't know, it was there when I bought the truck. The powder coater charged 600 to sandblast the frame and coat it. The coating is a solver vein and it has 2 coats of clear on it. I have tried using 4 different companies here and thes guys are the best. One company lost all my bolts to my transfer case. My suspension parts are silver. and everything else is wet black.

Man, I don't know where Gilbert is, but I might have to learn. The cheapest I've been quoted for the frame alone was $1200.00.
