Is there a lot of work into swapping the 4x4 gear from my 75 600 4x4 to the 78 600 2x4? All trucks are in my photos.

They always appeared to have the same frame. Just dif springs and mounts and a t case mount.

Looks great! I've been trying to figure out a color for my build. Whites now a contender. Window tint looks good too.

Thanks! Not a huge fan of white but it was the factory color and wembelton white is more of a cream so it's not bad, kinda growing on me. Still would like to find the trim for the rear doors and between the doors for the dent only) so I can break it up a little. If I don't find it I may go with the explorer stripes like my reg cab.

Thanks. They are 16.5 mags (powder coated) with 37/12.50s. They actually belong on my reg cab but I wanted to see how they looked after I lifted my crew. I have another set of the same sloted mags that I polished for my crew whenever I decide if I want to run 35's, 37's, or 38's.

HI guys. I already posted this in my cummins/crewcab build thread, but i thought that is might be a good idea to copy and paste it in this thread as well.....

Hey, can any of you guys that have the racetrack trim on their crew give me the length of the little short piece of LOWER trim that goes between the front and rear doors. I think the pillar measures around 2 1/2" so i was going to make a custom piece of trim around 2 1/4" long.

And can you tell me if it is square on both ends, or does one end have a slightly sloped end to help it clear the door when its opened just like the upper trim piece does.

I cut down a damaged front door piece, and was going to use both ends of it to make my two pieces, but then i noticed that it too has a slope on one end...so this got me thinking about this....

Thanks in advance!!
