Ha! The owner wants a vintage looking wheel, but it's hard to find in the 5 x 135mm pattern. Thanks for the kind words.

Next, he fabricated a new upper shock mount, as the position of the mount had changed slightly, and the two shocks were not in the exact same position. The drivers Side upper shock mount was recessed into the crossmember to ensure that it would have the same travel as the shock on the passenger side.







Next, a tubular rear cab mount/crossmember was fabricated to support the rear part of the cab.

This is a great build and your crew made it look so straightforward and easy. I kind of like the stock Lightning rims on the truck.
