The guy that did liner uses rhino lining. I've had a truck with line x. And trucks with rhino lining. And the line x is thin and smooth and peeled off after using bed. The rhino lining never did its thicker and rougher. Very happy with way it turned out. If your wanting to do it yourself. You can buy it from them direct. Rhino linings.com.

The 37" tire clears fine and doesn't hit anything with wheel turned all the way both ways. I'm still undecided like to use 35" tires since going to be daily driven.

Sunday I'll finish up all the cleaning and stuff from paint and body aftermath. Then I'll start putting outside stuff on be able to see it coming together. And decide on what size tire so can order them.

Front and rear bumpers on. And front grille is on grille was painted gray color of truck every place there was chrome. And the insert was painted black. And part around headlight bezels. Didn't like how they painted insert a gloss black. So already bought new grille and dropped it off different place to get repainted. Just put that one one to see front together. Want it semi gloss, like on newer trucks grille.

The 35" tire is on front. 37" tire on rear. So decided on going with 37" tires. 35" looks to small for my taste. Had 37" on front and turned tire back and forth good clearance all way around. So I'll order tires Monday.

Mirrors are on those are painted same color as truck. The place that's going to tint my windows does that clear wrap stuff there putting on new vehicles like on hood, side body parts. Going to get them to put clear stuff on backside of mirrors where its painted. So help prevent rock chips.

Headliner is done. I ended up asking place recovered headliner. If they could send one of there guys to my house to install it and they did. More I thought about decided not to do it myself since never had headliner before no holes for trim where there. It took the guy 8 1/2 hours to do it with me helping. So I'm glad I went that route.
