Welcome to the forum!

I've had no issues what so ever with it. I would recommend it to anyone for sure. It's not at all affected by the heat and the sun hasn't faded it at all either. If I were to actually way my truck it looks pretty much exactly the same as it did when I first applied it. I've beat the crap outta it with rocks, sand, mud, tree limbs, and even more than a few whole trees an it's help up awesome. The biggest part of a quality application is spending the majority of your time making sure you do proper prep work to give it a good base to stick to. Once that's done rolling it on is easy.

Decided I needed to clean up shop today! Pulled everything out to start from scratch and make sure I could get all the dust and crap cleaned up too. I didn't realize I had so much crap stashed away lol!

Now I just need to get some steel and plate the frame and I can weld these on and have some shocks finally. I found a nice deal on CL so I'll be picking up shocks tomorrow also.

Should have just left it all up with a "yard sale" sign... see if anybody grabs anything.

I don't go to to many yard sales but that would have been a stopper for sure.

I have a design that is simple and cheap to do! Give me about a month till I get back form vaca so I can gather the necessary goodies and I'll post it all up!


Also not my first choice for shocks but for $50 for the set of 4 brand new in the box I'll run them until I decide to spend good money for good shocks!
