Life, good site. If you are going to try to buy that front end replacement, you might want to look into its ability to accept a winch or not. Winch's dont sound like much, but after I got hung across a steep creekbank 2 weeks ago with only 3 wheels on the ground and my front bumper dug in, I decided that its time to put one on my truck. Would have saved me the embarassment of having to have my little brothers truck pull me out. 9 years in that truck and I have never hung it, till now.
I dont know if you know anything about welding or not, but if you dont go out and buy a copy of Haynes Welding Basics, a good cutting torch kit and a good welder, and teach yourself how to weld. Not only will you be able to make most of your truck accessories yourself, you also get to add more tools to your collection and have a 1 up on your friends that cant weld, and thats the name of the game. I dont know if your accessories are black or chrome. I hope you are going with black. Our trucks are the same color and I think chrome is for sissies. Maroon (or Cranberry) is just better looking with black.
The headache racks on that site are goodlooking too, but they need to run the rails down the length of the bed, instead of stopping right below the toolbox.
We need a trucking forum.
