Say, did you put new bedsides on there? How big of a job was that?

it was interesting since the truck is body dropped. I'd say about 8 hours each or so. hardest part was shaving the gas door because the metal on the new sides is so thin.

get rid of it.... roll down your windows.
im in the process of bagging my front end right now and i was thinking id mod it but its not worth it.. its not like its that uncontrollablly hot here for that long anyways...
plus it frees up alot of space in the engine bay and gets rid of alot of weight... not that it matters haha

Re: edmonton and area riders

95 S10X, you make it sound like its hard to do. it isnt.

your overflow can go anywhere or be anything, ive seen guys use beer cans for them. do some research to see what others have done. you dont need to remove the a/c to do bags, there are plenty of ways to keep it
