Need to find a good used tubular brace for the left rear bed side support. I looked at new ones and was shocked to see Ford Parts Direct wanting $130.00 for one...
Good job on the body work. I like the yellow too. One of my kids has a white bronco and wants me to paint it yellow and put the Amarillo sticker on it.

Looks very good. You must be in Cali or AZ. Here in ****igan our stuff is rusted out in a few years and yours appears to be rust free.
Kalifornia...LOL
It was a Los Angeles Department of Water and Power truck and it's not even dirty underneath. It spent it's entire life in the city. It was pulled from service in November of 2019 with 54,000 miles on it and sold at auction in January 2020. Came with a full maintenance log.
Above the stainless steel eye bolts....are those grade 10 bolts? You know, McMaster Carr sells titanium bolts....wink wink.
Looks good! I admire a person that goes out of their way to keep corrosion away.
PS-. I have purchased some of the titanium bolts from McMaster. Their weight is ridiculous for the size. Used them for Spec Racer D motor mounts (Suzuki engine).

Those eye bolts are T316 stainless with 8,000lb breaking strength and 4,000lb working strength.
The main bolts are 1/2" grade 8 with matching flange nuts.
Progress...'D' Rings and Receiver Are Mounted...This is to accommodate my dirt bike rack. The reflectorized 3M tape is for better visibility in traffic...
Did you paint the bumper or is it new? She looks great.
The safety tape reminds me of that old Tony Danza show, 'Who's The Boss', where he got his daughter (big-mouthed liberal communist Alyssa Milano) her first car and he had the tape all over the car. Great episode!
I'm honestly looking forward to how the truck looks when you say "I'm done!". I'm sure she'll be sweet AND strong.
