Have never been a big fan of lowered duallys, but man that thing looks sweet! The color combo looks great!

Thanks. I was never a fan of them either, but i think thats what makes the short dually work.

Almost makes me want to build a short bed version 4x4 one, but the long be is so nice when hauling stuff.

Not much new progress. I picked up a set of alcoa's from board member Scoti, they really made a difference in the truck. It was nice meeting and chatting with you Scoti.
I also installed the rest of the door moldings and sent the radiator support to the powder coater.

Alcoas look much better. Do you have the trim for the dually fender? I have a couple sets if you need them

I've been waiting for the update. Did you polish them up any (I know they were due)?

What are you going to do with the old wheels? New wheels look good!

The bed will be ready for long board with 180 next week then reprime for final sand.
Hopefully both fenders will be primed by Friday. Making some progress.:metal:

Cool build.

Question about this picture.

I was under the impression when you sprayed on your epoxy and you got the areas where you did body work showing, you had to put another coat or two on until that went away.. The body work absorbed the expoxy. Will there be issues later??

The black is sealer, the primer will then fill all the bodywork scratches.

Yes, I might be. My little brother was looking some for his 92 F-350.
