You are in deep. Wow.
That truck must have been hit really hard to have so many components cracked. Do yourself a favor when you put it back together. Buy yourself an RPG Bump Stop kit and install it before you put the bed back on. Also Mount the rear wire harness hi, not in the OEM location. Now may also be a good time for some stainless Works headers, there is a used set for sale on the Forum. The guy wants $1700, I would offer an $800, you'll probably get it. Best of luck in your build, I'll be following along.

Nice work! How much do you think you'll save in the end? Just wondering if it's worth it once you factor in all your time. Great experience to share with your boy though.

if you don't count labor...I should come out ok...if you count labor as "cost" it would not be worth it...but i don't have 60k laying around...and if I could get a loan by the time i paid all the interest, I would have paid 90k...this way I'll save a TON of $$$. The truck will have a salvage/reconstructed title but it will be paid for.

wow you're making quick work of that. but I'm surprised to didn't go with a custom tube chassis and build it into a true luxury prerunner

Good job, wish I had that much energy. On the plus side, you'll know who put it together. Highly impressed.
