I'm sure you meant beaut not butt, although I've call mine a butt a few times along the way in addition to some other rather colorful references.

Congrats!

Nice ride

You're right, that is a beauty; don't change anything other than getting it more road worthy.

Wish I were closer to stock.

Welcome to the board !

Truck looks great! I was in your neck of the woods this past weekend, visiting my son in Alamosa. He works at MV Co op. I used to sell tires to Skip at Gunbarrel Station.
