what do you mean builders tool? Like use the truck for construction work? I plan on using it to get to work and wheel thats it. Just not able to decide because I love the bobbed bed but it is litterally rusted everywhere. If it passes MOT I would just make the bed sides good enough to look at and patch the rest. Just dont want a Frankentruck!

tray back every time, more clearance and less tinwork to damage off road

Tray back..... More wheel tyre clearance, ability to fend off rocks and trees with no damage, build your own tool boxes and wheel carrier into the design...... and Double J's got a nice tube bender!!!

Got the rusty @$$ firewall welded up and sealed to the cowl. Thanks to doublej for the patches. Also cleaned and painted gas tank, cab floor, battery tray and aircleaner. Now that that monkey is off my back I can focus on the bed. Pics coming soon

after going over all the photos of the bed i now see what we kept talkin bout. its gonna be hard to patch all that and not have it look like a patch work quilt

After patching the bed rust turns out it will be a quilt. So decided to line the inside of the bed with alum like I told ya. Rhino line last slef tapping screws first.
