Still think I got a good deal after the work and parts it's needed. :cheers:

Pics of it clean hopefully coming soon!
 
Not as clean as the pictures show, there are some cancer spots that I need to fix up. Only 61k on the clock, and it looks/acts like it sat on and off a lot.

I'm debating putting fender flares back on it or welding up the 20-some 1/2" holes.....
 
looks like a nice truck.

Were those pics were taken in Brighton? That place looks familiar. Where do you work? Pm if you want, just curious.
 
It doesn't have flares now, only the backing strips that hold the molded piece on the truck. If I can find some for a decent price, I'll put them back on. The wheel wells look good, I just wish I could say the same for the rockers!

I agree, I like the look of flares, but I like clean lines and having few spots to collect crud to rub between panels. I'm torn.
 
Awesome truck Ryan!

With the way we fix things you'll probably have to paint the bed and fenders by the time you fix the holes and everything from the flares. Just put some on. Plus, its almost a sin for a 1 ton not to have them!
 
Looks nice! Did it come with a plow? Just curious since it still has the mount.

I wish I still had my 88 1/2 ton. They are fun trucks to drive. I want another on but can't get my G/F out of our Jeep.
 
Nope, no plow with it, but I'm sure if I wanted I could find one.

Just gotta get the damn trans lines off to replace them..... :banghead:
