Re: Project U S Army Sargent Slam
I dig this! Coming along very nice! Would you recommend the bolt on ridetech system? Thinking I might as well bag mine now too that I have it stripped down.

Re: Project U S Army Sargent Slam
The bed looks great. I used the same wheel tubs on my 48. They are not cheap but in my opinion they are the nicest looking tubs for AD trucks.

Re: Project U S Army Sargent Slam
Looked at your complete build so far, nice work. Soon as I saw the engine was hooked for the rest and keeps getting better.

Re: Project U S Army Sargent Slam
To answer your question Hussey. I just set 2x4s under the running boards.I got pretty lucky when setting my bed. I was able to use the front bed mounting brackets from the s10 and drill and bolt in one of the bed cross braces. Then I just drilled into the frame to mount the back cross brace and bolted that on. Then I used 2 inch angle iron for mount the floor of the bed front and rear.

Re: Project U S Army Sargent Slam
Here is the front bed brace mount to the old s10 bed mounts. Unfortunately I had to drill new holes In the bed strips to use this cross brace location.Here you can also see the 2" angle iron.Please don't jab me on the welds. My buddy decided to weld like a third grader. No,just kidding my welder was acting up.
