cab protector

No the bed's a civvy one. I did raise the front headboard so that the bed height would match the cab height. Wanted to keep the height the same so as to not catch on tree limbs/branches and to fit into my old shop. Space between the cab/headboard is for a spare mount soon to come now that I know the singles worked out. It will be on a 5 ton spare carrier type that folds down for access.

Tires are 14.5R20 XLs. Next ones will be 15.5R20s. Yes they are homemade wheels. The thing on the front is a plow mount. It's on for the winter; I take it off for the summer. Four pins and two bolts and it's gone. Side pics to come maybe tomorrow; it's dark here now.

The truck looks good. Why don't you like the 14.5R20s? I thought they might be just the right size.

M1075- I like the 14.5s but the 15.5s will be a little taller and give me a bit more road speed. Derby- The bed is from a 3500 Chevy that I made longer and beefed up. For a 5 ton you would need something bigger and heavier.
