Awesome! So... This thing will be Carlisle bound...?!?
Hell. I should leave Bigblue home and bring RCSB.... :hmm: lol. RCSB party!!!!
I'd have ALOT of work to do in the next three weeks to have that thing roll onto a "show field".
:crazy:

Yessss, do it! And don't worry about getting it show ready, mine sure as hell isn't. But I don't care, I'm going to have fun anyway
No no no, you have to bring the blue truck so I can steal the hood! I could steal the RCSB hood but then I'd have to paint it.
And I have a lot of work to do too... It should be interesting. :laugh:
They let me in there with the green truck though, I'm sure your RCSB is fine. :lol:
dang dan, you should make them notches for a living on the side, probably make a few extra bucks to get a nice turbo kit for the truck lol.
Yeah since I wasn't buying material in bulk and I needed it quickly it cost a shit ton, but in the long run I think it'll be worth it. I don't like any of the bolt in notches, and the AVS weld-in isn't bad, but I don't like that it isn't boxed.
Just with a quick look I can probably make one for 1/3 of the price I did this one for if I'm not forced to order stuff overnight from McMaster.
I have no clue if these will actually fit the way I want them to, this is definitely the definition if a prototype, but if it works well I'd definitely be willing to work with anybody that wants one. Only issue is since my office doesn't have a waterjet in our showroom anymore I'd have to get a friend in on helping me produce them.
If anyone is interested though we can definitely talk. Since these would be one-off the depth of the notch could also be adjusted within reason.

Looks nice, the depth on it doesn't look any deeper than a Bolt in notch though. Would definitely need it deeper for Dakota :lol:

Yeah it's only 2.5" deep, I'm only doing a flip kit in the rear and will be doing helper bags ASAP. The green truck had about as much clearance with no notch as this will with the notch and I never had issues without helpers on that thing. I just don't trust any of the off the shelf notches, and making shit is fun.
Yea it is. I think the bolt holes are stretched but it seems like it's getting worse every time I drive it. Gonna pull the bed off today and weld the notches up. Should have done that shit from the start but I planned on doing deeper notches later. I think my biggest problem though stems from when I hit that curb back in September. The truck got airborne and landed pretty hard.
