    How did you mount the front mud flaps? Just a piece of SS angle iron? What size are they?

    And @NorthernMechanic hows your ride coming?

    I've been posting the day to day stuff on the thread I started for it. Figured I'd pop in here once in a while when I have a decent amount of progress. Frame's painted and I have a drive axle in it. Only the front suspension hangers are bolted in so I still need to drill and install everything else suspension related. Once that's done I've got to do suspension bushings, brakes and install the rear crossmember. Then I think it'll be time to start on the cab.

    @NorthernMechanic
    I forgot to get a picture but there's a flatbed supply place near me, in Hamilton. They had a pair of 5th wheel ramps already fabbed up. I think $190 for the pair. I remember you saying you wanted a pair.
