Wood floor, going to look for some "reclaimed lumber" and use the stock style bed strips, Mar-K's sells them any length and with no holes.

Re: Maggie's Custom

Got the rest of the bed frame done, got the tail gate back on, going to order some bed strips this week and get the floor done soon. Going to get the front brakes lines finished and get the front clip back on this weekend!
Than I move.

Re: Maggie's Custom

I went home for lunch and put the clip on the truck (took some help) (they are coming to show the house to some new renters!! so I wanted to get it moved). Anyway I'm thinking the front tires look to small, I won't have to cut the fender liners. Maybe a 215 70 or 235 70? I'll roll it out in the drive tonight and take some pics!

Re: Maggie's Custom

Here's a good chart to help you decide. The 235 70 might be to tall depending on the look you want. They are close to the same height as your rear 270 60 tires

Maybe a 205 75? would give you roughly 3/4 extra overall diameter and tread width would be about 1/2 wider

Re: Maggie's Custom

Here it is with the front clip! I ordered two tires for the front so I can decide what to do, it looks ok with the 205 but I have some 235 70's BFG's that will be here tomorrow. Going to measure for the brake lines and call it a night! Let me know what you guys think.
