I can definatly do bigger tubing as requested. But I typically do 2.25-3" on the main runner then a hair thinner for the pre-runner and such

I may have missed it but is it raw steel when you ship out or do you get the powder coated? For me, If I got one, is no big deal as we have a guy that does it pretty cheap out of his home near here but thought was worth nothing.
I will do light tabs/mounts where ever you like.

I'd be interested as well. Bout the whels, my guess is they were originally brushed aluminum and you painted them. What paint and how did you do that? I've got the same wheels in decent shape but I like your look better.

Wow...I think it is some nice looking stuff! I always wondered about incorporating a headache rack with an intake system that would keep the air inlet above the level of the cab.

Good work! How about running boards on the order of DeeZee only heavy duty.

My brother and I just built a headache rack today actually hah but that was for his flat bed so its a bit different. Let me know what you guys want. I can do tube a square stock rock sliders (step bars, nerf bars, running boards) but they would be frame mounted, and since my frame is different from yours I would need mounting measurements/ ideas from you. Headache racks I will do all day long, bumpers are the hardest to make thats why I figured I should throw this idea out there. Pm me.
