You do realize you only need bump stops on top of the spring pack and not on the frame, right? When you put a set of bump stops on top of the spring pack and another set on the bottom of the frame you limit your spring travel. Or did you do it for a specific reason I'm not aware of?

Looks great!

No I did not think about spring travel. :oops: It just looked like a good idea.

Final finish putting the bed on. I added the wood between the bed and frame, welded mounts on trailer bed, set bed into place, hooked up lights all work great! Still have to find the right spot to mount trailer receptacle. Drove it around the block brakes worked great, the truck is a dream to drive even more fun than building it. :) Here are some more pics

Looks great very similar to mine, I used the m105 spring packs. I'm looking to put bigger tires and change the wheels to get rid of the split rims but that takes $$$. In the mean time I,m running dual tires (on the back of course) it has a nice look, I'll send pictures when I have time to figure how to post them. good job. paint?

Please post pics when you can. I can never get enough of seeing what other members have done to their trucks.

Thanks
