Fix the bed

[H D]

What's the best way to fix this myself? I paid for the bodywork on my Cougar, so this is a new project. If only I could not back into tractors...



I'm thinking fiberglass resin and some Estate Green paint?

Yep, you'll have to sand down then scuff up the area for the resin to stick to first. Shouldn't be a hard project. Let us know how it turns out, maybe you could right up a project thread on it and get a wrench. I need to get around to doing one with all the stuff I've done to my truck I should have atleast 10 or so project right up's by now. Some day I'll get time to do them.

Thanks. I'll do that. I'm also going to try to do a project write-up for the brush guard brackets for a body lift since that is some difficult info to come by. Check the swap and sell for my next potential project.:grin:



I had a website that offered all the Ford (maybe other brands, too) paint in touch-up bottles but I seem to have lost it at some point. I think I got to it from this site, maybe even a site sponsor, but no luck so far. I remember they had great prices. Any suggestions?

I know alot of parts stores are now carrying factory code paint colors in spray cans. If none around you do you can always go to most places that mix paint color and have them make you either a bottle or an spray paint can. I noticed last night you're trying to sell your tires, do you have pictures of what you're gonna replace them with ?:banana:

 

[H D]

Hard to find pictures of tires and wheel combo but here they are on my soon-to-be brother-in-law's Jeep. They're actually all brand new as he has replaced all 5 through warranty. He's way tougher on them than I would be, lol. And then separately...

It would require adapters to go to 5 on 5, but that's not much of an issue and I'll be able to put up my current spacers on the S&S.

 

[Jerry Gerner 2]

What size spacers?

 

[H D]

1.5" all around

 

[Jerry Gerner 2]

Oh, ok. That's what I'm running and should've went with 1.25" in front so I wouldn't get any rub. Make sure you check the width, offset, overall tire demensions so you don't order the wrong width adapters.
