Nice! What a difference. Did you use POR? What year is the bed? The lines look perfect. Who needs paint, truck looks tough as is.

Thanks man. And no, I've seen too many cases where the POR just peeled off, I figured I'd just use basic "Rust Control" paint on the frame. The bottom of the bed had paint and bedliner tho. And that's a 2013 bed.

Did the paint on bedliner today. Looks pretty good, gonna give it a couple days and then touch it up and do the bottom again. Used 2/3 gallon for the gate and bed.










Also put the 35's back on after getting it inspected for the first time in years, lol





Re-did the fuel filler neck as well. Had to use the stock hose and extend it 4-5" to make it fit right. Fuel flows great now.

Really? I wonder why that is. Is this new? or ongoing?

They are showing up for me, on different computers and my phone.
