Nice day out - So I took a few pics!
And up for display for the first time - I had a Delta Pro full steel crossbed box made and delivered - Damn nice quality on it, tough as all heck - can easily stand 3 or 4 people on it without bending, its loaded stuffed right now with all the junk I had to keep hiding behind my seats... feels wierd to have an open floor in the extended cab area =)
Went out camping 2 weeks ago, slightly fuzzy pics thanks to a high iso setting (Few hours till night in the forest is hard to take pictures in w/out flash) :-(
Took a few pictures of both of my nieces trying to sit in the wheel of my truck... the little one looks so small sitting inside of it =)

Couple future aesthetic plans I plan to get done in the next week:
*Installing a 3-Bulb red trailer light under the bed in between the tailgate and the bumper - Shane had something akin to that on his truck ages back.. will have to lower my bumper about 3/4" to make it visible - have it run with my daytime lights..
Then installing a few tie-down rings in the bed of my truck... use some 1/8" flat stock as a backing, and add in a couple good spots to tie stuff down.. installing the rear toolbox knocked away my 2 hooks, and 2 bed posts for tie downs.. put me at a slight disadvantage trying to tie things down :-)

They run 55watt H3 replaceable bulbs - but I find its cheaper to just buy yourself 2 or 3 sets.. always have a replacement, and the beam pattern fans out in a short arc, but covers alot of flood area.
Fantastic also if you want to do puddle/rock lights under the frame - I will get that taken care of down the road when I have the urge to spray the mud out of my frame and run some more wiring around
Sure am! Went to the last one, and I should be able to request the entire day off this time too! Was only around for about an hour and a half - just long enough for Shane and Trev to show up, then I had to scoot to get back to work :-(

Looks great Mike! It's been upwards of a year since you've whored her out! lol.
How's those brackets working out for the lights that I made you?
like this?
Have you seen my rings on my toolbox?? I used some 5/16 or 3/8" stainless rings bolted to the box. I'll take pics and post if you'd like me to.
HAHAHA...I'm gonna be running the same ones as my rock lites/trail lights! lol.

Yup, those exactones under there.. they give our trucks a damn nice look on the rear end.. I've been wanting to spice it up a bit! The brackets work fantastic bud! Have had them installed for ages now, the damn little bolts that came with the front guard keep wiggling out.. so I am ogoing to completely drill out the hole, make it bigger, and put some tubing in.. then use two washers on each end with a bolt to smash it together to give it a real secure assembly.. sick of it wiggling around only because its loose - other then that issue they are fantastic!
Still crossin a line though, thinking I may pull them off and sell them, make room for some 2" right angle flat stock to be bolted up to fit a few slim lights in there, pull them back from the front a bit - then going to go ahead and track own some more lights for the behind the grill setup, maybe some 6"ers or somethin, still looking at options.. totally going to rock either some hardbor freight chrome's, or some of the northern tools setups for the whole thing.
