fantastic build tho, the title of this build is "two is easier than one" still panning on building the other too?
The covers are from California Car Covers.

Using billet hinges in the stock locations, that is why we had to go full custom on our wheel tubs and still retain the standard mounting position. However the new hinges use gas struts so we were able to fill the spring wells.

As far as the second build, well the plans is still in place but to be honest this truck has taken so many turns and changes that it became a full frame up custom and the Race Truck will sit patiently in the background for another year or two.

One thing has changed. I was planning on building my own chassis for the Race truck but after building this chassis on Greg's truck I will farm the chassis out to Rob @ No Limit engineering. we have chatted about what I want and he is confident we can have a roller able to pull 2 g's lateral and handle the 1,000 HP program I will be shoving into it.
