Here you go!

I will see about getting some new shots at ride height...which will be 4" from the frame to the ground. Glad you like the new/old bed graphics...i had a couple sets of the NOS. "Big 10 " decals and didnt know if i would like them on there or not.

crawdadfox · 05-30-2009, 06:13 PM

I installed a ACI Vanish low profile roll up bed cover on the truck today. It was one of a few thats available for our "old" trucks! The fit was very good with no drilling, and super easy to install.

silvrbreez · 05-30-2009, 09:24 PM

similar to the truxedo lo-pro i'm rolling with on my Frontier.

Yes, it looks like the same one to me too, I have a truxedo lo pro on my 2006 Silverado. Very nice cover, that one looks like a very good cover too. Love those "Big 10" decals

Thanks on the decals. I had a Truxedo cover on my 87 and this one is allmost identical. Now if the price would just go down...400 bucks...Ouch!

ShowSS12 · 05-31-2009, 12:16 AM

damn I like that cover....

Yeah, that's the one bad thing about those covers. They're not overpriced, but they're just damn expensive. The one on my '06 is just over two years old and still looks and works like brand new.

crawdadfox, your truck is sick!! excellent job man!

MrBeast · 06-02-2009, 09:08 AM

Crawdadfox, to be honest, slammed trucks have never tickled my fancy, I have always driven 4x4's with big tires, usually plenty of lift, and in the past few years, always with a big block. Recently I purchased my first 2wd Dually, a 72 C/30, and it is getting converted to a SRW 4x4 because I have since that time put together a 85 C-30 Crew Cab Dually to serve as my tow rig, and the last thing id ever dream about doing to it is slamming it.

That being said, I dig your truck, it is cool, it is clean, and it has style. I think you have done a mighty fine job putting it together, and if I ever make it over to NOLA id love to check it out, or vise versa if you ever venture over to my part of the 3rd coast with it.

jchav62 · 06-02-2009, 09:30 AM

Hey crawdad, your truck just keeps getting better and better... Love it!

I really like the decals and the bed cover... SICK!

BuiltByBrooks · 06-06-2009, 04:10 PM

A compliment like yours seem to make the time and hard earned dollars worth while! Thanks to you and the others for the kind words, and if you get over this way look me up!

silvrbreez · 06-08-2009, 09:13 AM

I'm going to be in NO for a family wedding in mid August. I'm might have to swing by and check out the BIG10.

crawdadfox · 06-08-2009, 09:26 AM

A New Orleans wedding....now that will be a PARTY!!

Stop in and check it out, i'm in "smelling distance" of the big easy!

silvrbreez · 06-08-2009, 09:27 AM

You know it! I'll be in for a week so I'm sure I'll be able to make my way out to wherever you are. I'll be on the Westbank.

I've been to the French Quarter several times for Mardi Gras. That smelling distance poke is funny right there . . ....

funny....but true

Only in New Orleans will you smell a dude sitting out smoking a Joint in the middle of a square.

JohnC · 06-16-2009, 05:22 PM

I like the decals crawdad. They really keep with the stock appearance. Would be cool if you could have someone make you some that matched fonts that said "LOW 10"

ShowSS12 · 07-19-2009, 11:16 PM
