     I helped a friend about 6 yrs ago do this with a dodge 3\4 ton truck, it is a lot of work.  By the time we finished it, he was tired of working on it and sold it.

Price is a little steep for us po folk. ;D. Maybe if I had a Ford that needed the ugly hidden, but I like the looks of our rides.

The kit used to be called BUMMER and was made in utah. I've always wanted one of these, but who know's when I'll be able to afford one.
