Thanks Claus. Continuing on with the truck....

I received the Osswald front suspension for the truck, and it helped reduce some of the fender gap. I thought I could live with it, but later I would decide to lower the truck even more.



The Osswald spring packs - flat.



Installed with the front drive axle.





A little better ride height, but still not as good as I hoped for, as you'll see later.



The next big idea I came up with for my truck was to fab up my own single, half round fenders. I made a tutorial on a couple different websites, when I got a lot of people asking me how I did them. These days, I see them popping up more and more, which is cool. They turned out to be really easy to make.







I was starting to feel a little better about my progress. The look was improving. Still not quite perfect, but getting there.
