Made enormous progress this weekend with shocks, anti-wrap bar, bumpers and custom bed incomplete. The bed has a cab length toolbox and two side toolboxes recessed in two 1/4" steel plates as well as a recessed 22 gallon fuel cell. It's not mounted yet though. There's several "lower priority" things that aren't done but it drives, it turns (very well!) and it stops (better than stock on 33's). It also flexes like a boss.
