The Front Fenders are hanneman  Not sure which measurement you need But I did save most measurements the cab hoop and bed main hoop work out to be the same bends just longer legs . Just let me know what you need measured.

Thanks Man.  It took a long while to come up with something different

Well hav'nt done much to the truck lately. Moving on from my job of 23 years and packed up all my tools. I did manage to lose a Power Tank on the road. (Making safety Chain for New one). Found this Cool Picture on the Power Tank Info Though.

man i really like your bed idea, i have been thinking of doing one pretty much exactly like it, im glad i go to see one similar to the one in my head before i build mine, it is form and function all in one its perfect!!! :thumbs:

Rockdiver

Before & After shots and how this all got started .   first was sliders and bumper, Then Fiberglass fenders,Then I added marlins front 5 " springs Then a week later a buddy called  and asked if i wanted a free orbit suspention and get my truck in a buildup shoot.  well after all I that I had to go all the way. I dont see an end to this madness.     For Sale and Start again?

Rockdiver

I think its time to find a 3RZ    Any sugestions as what to do next   I am going to finish the half doors soon
