I don't have collision insurance, hence the reason I am rebuilding my truck instead of buying a new one. The entire rebuild of my truck including the raptor conversion will cost me $1500. All the raptor parts I got for free or for almost nothing.

Woah... That's CHEAP! I figured you just bought it back from the insurance company is why i asked. If you have that hookup for any other parts hook a brother up haha. Extremely ambitious and I'm jealous. I'd say I'm sorry about the rollover, but it's worked in your favor! Glad you're okay though!

I was pretty lucky, ended up buying another 06 the next day that had a nicer cab then the truck I rolled but had a bad engine and front end damage so I took the cab from it and put it on my truck. Only cost me $1000

Just debating on what company to order the bedsides from. McNeil, Rsk, Fibrewerx. I know all fiberglass companies have pretty poor fitment and require lots of prep just don't know which one to go with.

Looking good. Can't wait to see the finished product. How do you like the Go Rhino extreme light bar? I'm fairly certain I'll be buying one in the near future.

I really really like it! I own an LED lighting company and all 4 of the company trucks have them with 50" mounted on the top. It's definitely one of the favorite things I've done to my truck!

Good to hear then. Definitely on my wish list since it should work nicely with my tonneau cover that fits inside the rails.
