Hell Yeah! Rubs but nothing a hacksaw can't fix

What offset are you running on your rims and how bad is the rubbing?

New Update! Bestop Supertop Installed!

After some back and forth arguments over a fiberglass shell vs canvas I decided to go with the Bestop Supertop. The main reasons I went with the bestop is:

- Sleeping Area (Wanted some sort of cover and protections against the elements while camping)

- Covered Bed (More peace of mind running into the store with stuff in the back)

- Lightweight and Easy to Fold (Didn't want to remove a fiberglass shell anytime I had large items in the bed. It folds up easily and allows large items in with ease)

 

Future Plans:

Will be building a sleeping and cargo platform in the bed. This will allow me to sleep comfortably in the back and also provide storage for all of my gear. Everything will be neatly organized and require less than 30 minutes to be out the door and packed for camping. Will also add a baja designs dome light for lighting in the bed.

You should look at the DECKED truck bed storage system. Looks like good amount of storage, able to be secured and gives you a nice level platform for your camping.

I'll definitely take a look. Thanks!

Truck looks killer!
Are those 17" methods?!
Digging all the lights!
What do your interior switches look like for all those lights?
