Mickey Thompsons
Mounted the MT's today and got them on. Shocks are on and was going to bring it home but ran into a small problem with the rear bumper. Had taken it off to level the bed up ?????? Now I can't remember how I got it on the first time. I worked on it till 1am and finally gave up. I can't get the nuts onto the bolts. LMAO. Not sure if my hands got fatter or if I did it some other way.

Re: Mickey Thompsons
That is one tough looking truck. I never really liked step beds but i think i well start looking for one your truck is so cool looking.
If you have a welder at the shop just tack a welding rod to the nut then you can get it in a tight spot and after you tighten the bolt the rod will just break off with a little twisting. Ed |

Re: Mickey Thompsons
Tomorrow after I get it cleaned and ready for Springfield, I will take some good pics with it all together. I'm having a hard time getting use to the height.....
 Hope the cops don't notice.
