I bet your out wheel n this thing man!! You should do a practice dove on that box you have now and get it figured out so you don't happen to mess up the new box man. just a thought, plus the truck will look sick with the dove and all dude!! Post pics of wheel n soon brah!!

We were out wheelin/gettin a x-mas tree out in the wwods today. It was pourin down rain and the snow was super soggy but we still had a good time. I need to re-shim my rear axle before I go abuse the thing. Ill get the shims this week. but next weekend my lil sister is gettin married so I dunno if Ill have much time to wheel then either

I might try the dove tail thing. I havent even had my truck outta the garage yet to get a good look at it.

I don't think he should dove it. Box you mean bed

Uh no i mean box! Thought they were called a pickup box. The bed would be the floor area of the box. Like when you put a flatbed on your truck its called a flatbed cause it has no sides to it. You would not call it a pickup bed. Well who cares anyway, bed just sounds weird to me. Plus box is way better

But really it would look sick wit the dove man!

I've never heard anyone call it the box before

. Ya exactly, it's called a flat bed because it is a bed with no sides. If it was called a box then wouldn't it be a flatbox not flatbed

. I think it will look kinda goofy because his bed (or as you call it "box" haha) is so short now but shoot you ever know.

I really like the thought of the doved bed , but I have yet to see a 3rd gen that looked good imo. Post up a picture of one that you think looks clean though! I still think he should make a tube bed and then make removable bed sides for it

That way you could keep it looking like a truck and not worry about trashing beds.

O yeah that's basically what mine looks like, only mines still a lil ruff around the edges

test drove it today. It did real good except for the lil DL vibration and worn front wheel bearings. Once I do the wheel bearings and get the right shim under the rear axle it'll be set to jet. Other then that everything seems to be workin great

swapped89 · « **Reply #915 on:** Dec 13, 2010, 04:03:12 PM »

mattlosch · « **Reply #916 on:** Dec 13, 2010, 04:37:42 PM »
