seeing that truck makes me think it would be cool to do on my dually give it that big beefy look but i would so try to make it look bigger what u think i would have to do to get it to work would i have to get the front to fit as i think it would help me to get access to the motor or would it be better to get the fiberglass piece for a regular hood to flip up as some people have done

Heres a better view of that truck. You can see that it isnt wider than the cab.

na i dont know what im talking about. but i was saying with the home made spacers to lift one frame off the other and just cutting the roof in half also with the damaged clip. it wouldnt be a nice road truck but if your making a off road rig then he did what he needed for some odd reason and this is what he made. do i like it, no but if it does its job then he did what he intended to.
