The story

I bought the truck about a year ago and have removed everything from the frame. I had the frame sand blasted and painted. I had the body undercoated and the entire interior including the inside of the doors and the tailgate sprayed with Line-X. I plan on around a 6 inch lift kit which I have not purchased yet and cutout flares to fit about 38 inch tires. — jonnybronco
