dude that turned out amazing. I would be so afraid to ruin the paint doing that.

Had a 3x3’ aluminum road sign laying around and decided to put a floor in the storage rack. It had to be two pieces with the sheet I was using. Did a bunch of notching and trimming to make each piece fit. I think it’s turning out pretty good so far. My reasoning was to try to keep as much debris from falling through into the bed as possible (for trash at clean ups and firewood). Plus it could make for a good work table. I wanted to plate around the walls of the rack but realized my dust lights would be blocked so just the floor it is. Next is to pull the rack off, drill some holes and rivet the floor pieces on. I love fun little stuff like this.

Painted the rack, did some measuring, drilled some holes and riveted both aluminum pieces on. It turned out really good. Not bad for an old Harbor Freight cargo rack and a road construction sign. If you see the 2 random rivets it was to fill some holes that were already in the aluminum from it’s road sign life. My OCD doesn’t like it but I gotta look past that lol.

Got the OG ReadyLift rear bump stop/frame brace kit installed (minus bumps) after what seemed like a year. Fit like a glove. It’s so hard to justify $800+ for brand new bump stops though! The sad thing is I have a brand new set sitting here in the garage that I ordered through work with the agreement that I was just going to pull measurements and send them back. My original plan was to make bump stop slugs and run beltech bump stops in their place. Basically a factory style bump stop in the hydro bump can. Not sure the route I’ll take as of yet but for now I’m still running the OEM bump stop that works with the frame brace.

Brandon, I have a set of 2.5x4" FOA bumps that I won't be using. Needs a rebuild, but I don't want them. Shoot me a text if you do!
Looks soo clean!
