It actually seems to be as light, or heavy as the Aqualu swb 45 bed. Wolf Creek Rod Works has one next door that we are comparing it to.

This is an awesome build Mike. I got to head up to your neck of the woods to take a peek

Any updates?

The bed is ready for undercoating, waiting on supplies. Soft top and exhaust are done, picking the rig up tomorrow afternoon. The main cab should be painted by weeks end, the bed the following week. I may just primer the bed so i can go wheel Moab while the IPOR boys are there. To say i'm ready to drive it is an understatement !

No clue about the links. They worked fine, then went invalid ? Message sent to admin.

mike, you totally suck for not making roundup. it rocked!

 

[zornff]

Yes, I do suck for not going. I almost drove the 55, but REALLY wanted to take my 40.5. Just could'nt get it done. I was so bummed to hear Katemcy is closing. I hope the Texas boys rally and find another location for '10. Did i hear Justin tumbled his pig ? If so i'm sure he had fun doing it, i just hope its not too trashed if he did.
See you in Moab ?

Heres a few pics of the cab painted and reassembled, and the bed complete and ready for under coating and paint.
