Re: Dodge pick up
Looking at the side view, is it me or is the bed sloping back to the rear - like it's sitting too high at the front (or too low at the rear)?
Looks good otherwise.

Re: Dodge pick up
This is looking good. Must be something with this kit, I got a few of them & they're all bowed at the back of the frame.

Re: Dodge pick up
looks good so far, nice gloss on the paint and the short pick up bed looks tuff.
