Now pretty simple I just replaced the shock mount screws with long screws then I cut the heads off and then alum tubing fused to the insides of the fenders they slide on nice and snug.

Then as you can see the bracket I made up out of brass that is bolted to the stock mount on the lift axle..

Ok here are the painted and finished picks since the last up date a year ago I made brass CB whips and put steves wheels all the way around also made a cover for the MFU controls that is held on viva a magnet.. Might do a custom rear light bar and might change the front bumper but I will be changing out the PMD air cleaners for a set of Steve killer Vortecks in black.. So a little mo0re to come..

Paul those fenders look amazing painted. I really can't wait for my body to get here from Jon, it's gonna be all black similar to this and I think I will now need a set of his fenders to go along with the rest of the truck. Thanks for making me spend more money!!! :D
