A Minnie service body would be sweet! But how long would those door stay on? Unless u put some kind of tubing to protect the body of it.
Just some thick angle around the top edge would be all I need, I just rub the top edge really.

Santa with the brown truck dropped off some goodies today...


These things are pretty slick..

Did a quick sketch of what I am thinking about for a possible bed...maybe just leave the wheel well open on the back (where the dotted lines are penciled in) not sure hoe deep the boxes would be either...maybe 12" or so.


Thinking 12 ga steal boxes, expanded metal bed floor, and 1/4" aluminum plate for the doors. Paint the steel to match the truck and leave the aluminum raw.

Then I went to town in MS paint...lol (Don't mind the half finished wheel dropped in the middle.lol)

Got these little fellas installed last night.

Learned my lesson on the first one...slide the inner retainer in first or you wont get it in without taking a burr to the inner yoke... I put Loctite sleeve retainer on all 4 "caps"....I don't plan on taking these apart unless something is already broken.lol

I love having the lift to use...so convenient.

Thanks for letting me ride with you on Sunday. You have built an impressive machine with the strongest tailgate I have ever seen :icon_rofl:. Here are the few photos I took yesterday.
