Re: What did you do to your truck today part II.
Took this pile of parts and got the front suspension mostly installed, complete with 2" drop springs. Major milestone. Please ignore the incorrectly installed steering components

Re: What did you do to your truck today part II.
Got my Burb into the shop for a couple more patch panels. I wasn't going to but decided better to do it right. Not half assed. They are borderline of needing it.

Re: What did you do to your truck today part II.
Thanks! Its just poplar from home depot. Made my wife make the decision. I wasn't sure what I wanted and everyone I asked had a different opinion. So, I let her pic haha. Painting the original strips satin black. I think it will turn out good. Will be nice for water to not be shooting out of the bed when it rains anyhow! Haha.

Re: What did you do to your truck today part II.
We finally had a day above freezing so I drove my truck the parts store a mile down the road. It felt so good to drive it I kept going. I ended up putting 50 miles on her just cruising around.
