Like i said, fronts will be done tonight and will have pics up as i go along. Front 2nd gen inner fenders are a bitch and a half with the protruding plastic.

Nice Pictures, real clean truck, those flaps will sure help keep the salt and snow off the body. Are they stiff enough to keep from flapping forward and catching the tire on those through bolts?

no theyre a flexible rubber but i may just cut the excess threads off.

Look good man.

I still think your rear bumper needs a dent in it though - :choochoo:

or not :)

The stainless braces.... did you buy or make those? Where? Looks real good!!! :tu:

i bought them from Bosselmans in Altoona, IA.

Front flaps are on, will get pics tomorrow after i clean them up some.

Looks good man! Bosslemans is a pretty nice truck stop too had been there a few years back when i was still driving

ok guys, heres pics of the fronts finished. I took everyones advice, rounded the edges around the weights and shortened the bolt on the backside of the weights on the bottom of all 4 flaps.

Heres pics.
