A spare everything minus the crap frame. I'd cut this into a four door and overland the back.
 
Not the one I was thinking of, but his 10" extension doesn't look too bad. Just looks like a tire clearance trim job.

I can’t wait till I tell everyone I’m considering grafting in jeep front fenders as a solution to tire poke 🤣🥳. I’d say 40 or 70 series front fenders but (1) who has any of those for cheap, and (2) I like to poke the bear ;-)

My plan is to custom extend the portion forward of the cab that’s only like 4” and push it forward by filling it in so it doesn’t look like I need 40” tires to make it look stock.

Definitely some figuring out to do yet, but I don’t plan on extending the length AND having a gigantic opening.

Sea potato has forms for 40 fenders, that's how I built my fiberglass ones, you could do something like that then extend them fairly easily.

That said with such a Frankentruck it seems to be pretty fair game to use whatever works 😅

I think it's a fun project, quite difficult, but looking forward to seeing what you guys do 😁
 
Well, sometimes the stars align and a beautiful generous human being decides it’s your day to be the receiver of wonderful things…today’s FB Marketplace find that will be the centrepiece of this project :) My kid is super stoked, although I’m still not sure how incredible he understands this is for his project.

Purdy. I need to replace some cables on mine that have insulation that is cracked. I’ve not pulled my truck with it, but it sure it’ll do the job. I just need to thin out my stray somewhat. 🤷‍♂️
