    Thanks. I'm now working on a quality show paint job, I'm still undecided between this two tones of grey ^ ^

    Thanks for the advice. I'm sure I will top coat it since I'm painting the whole truck.

    I've been sandblasting blocking and sanding for a long time. My iwata guns just arrived from Japan. So it's time to paint

    Thanks buddy. It's been time consuming doing all that fab work. I'm a perfectionist when it comes to getting stuff leveled n squared. So. It's taking a lot of my time. I plan on having the cab back on and bolted up by next weekend hopefully the paint shop runs on schedule :cheers:

    Just got done with new taller body mounts. Built a reference point out of square tubing and pipe. Also used laser to verify mounts elevation. Thinking of bed liner or chassis saver coat??

    Trying the 33" tires from my 88 hilux just to have and idea of truck height. I'm having the 8 lug dually wheel adapters machines as I'm posting this. I'm going to settle with a 3-1/2" body lift and 255/85/16 tires which are Alitalia bit taller than my 33s.

    That tire size is almost as tall as the 33's I have in my hilux. I'm going to give them a try and if I still have room for bigger tires I will upgrade, but I'm thinking those will look right on my truck
