Ok it has been a long day but we have been working on RonC's truck project. Ron wanted larger tires on his truck so he made his own line of tires called the 20" MickeyRonsters, Well it took some time but I think we got it. We had to cut the bed to make them fit after a few 12 packs and the cuts came out perfect. We added a 7" lift in the back to clear the tires but we only need a 5" lift so we added ( free of Charge) a cocreate parking lot stop to bring it down 2" and help on traction. We were going to start on the front Tuesday but as of a few hours ago Ron said he loves the ride with the new Wonder Bar and Grill treatment He loves it just like it is.... What do you think?

Those are just preliminary cuts in the truck bed....Tuesday we are going to cut it out further, and put some fender flares on it. That way any imperfections will be hidden from view. I'm working on this project to enter it into a Tractor Pull that's coming up this fall.... This thing gets more attention than anything else I have ever driven.... I just need to find a few more of those concrete parking lot stops to put in the bed of the truck... I may have myself a wheelie pullin Ram!!!!!!! We'll keep ya posted!
