More projecting for me. Chan is seriously falling behind.

 First up, finished off my frame spacer blocks.

 Which were sorely needed.

I had previously decided that the bumper-less factory look of this truck just wasn't doing it for me, plus the license plate kept getting bent when I lifted the bed... so I decided to make a bumper



 Part of this process involved doing this:
It's always the brand new, sharp drill bits that you break. Figures. Now my drill index is one 3/8" short.

The other thing that this involved was unlooming the rear light harness and re-routing the tail lights and reverse lights so that they didn't go up into the rear deck.

This was NOT the best idea to start as it was getting dark. Duh. And then I ran out of electrical tape, so I had to stop making changes. I still need to shorten the bumper portion of the harness.

End result looks something like this:

Not too bad, I'd say.

Tomorrow, I'm headed to the local truck show with both of my rigs. Role reversal!
