    thanks everyone. ill post up some old school pics of mine and some of Brians (nissan231) .
    I built the bumper and the sliders , the bumper bolts on and the sliders utilize the stock slide in mounts. EH i usually just tinker up some stuff for me , but i would maybe be willing to make some extras.

    yeah i was there, sunday is a hard day for me to be anywhere before 2 or so haha. usually pretty hungover .
    the bed that rc4wd sells is just a little different. My Buddy Dave sold the design to RC4WD. my bed was the first one he ever made.
