Lookin good. Tires look nice. What are your intentions to make it offroad capable with 37s?

Looking good. Keep us updated on how u make out with 37's with stock tires and mid perch while offroading. I want to do 37's eventually but don't want to bite the bullet and do fenders

Well I've had the privilege of riding with E63 himself. His truck is what every Raptor owner should strive to have. I've picked his brain many times and practically have his build thread memorized. He modified the stock fenders to allow for off road capabilities. I've got all the tools I need, I just need to find the time to do it. LOL. I will be pulling back the wheel well liner, hammer ongoing back or grinding down any welds and cutting the backside of the fenders.

EVENTUALLY I wanna go with fiberglass which is why I'm ok destroying these fenders. Cut them up and use them for a few months then when my bankroll is nice and fat again, I'll get glass.

They are, but I need 4 hands to bolt it back in. I'm not the smallest and most agile of creatures. So I just said **** it.

I'm trying to convince him to go on the Halloween run with us. He says he has no camping gear. I said its ocotillo in early November. The weather will be perfect. Blow up an air mattress in the bed of his truck.



I SWEAR THATS IT........wink wink
