Dino,
no tricked out porterbuilt thingys?
The truck looks decent and has potential. Maybe some luck for your boy too.
Good luck!

Re: Square job for my kid

Lookin Good !

Hope he doesn't do like I did moving to a larger truck, Went from a Toyota to my square body. Two days after getting mine I pulled through my 150 ft. drive-way late one night, I tried to put it between the same two trees I drove my yota through and wiped out the bumper along with the RF fender....

Re: Square job for my kid

Looks COOL Dino. I wish I would have had truck like that, when I ws a kid.
I vote for two Dropmembers. (1 front and 1 rear)

Those wheels look like the ones you had on your orange suburban. What's going on with the burb now?
