So, are you going to do a full canopy or a half canopy?

Full-ish. I guess in the normal world it will be like a 3/4 canopy. There will be the swing down tire carrier at the headboard then the lift off canopy after that. I want to be able to keep the spare on it at all times.

Not sure if its the pics, but i can't unsee it...

is the bed not following the lines of the truck? Its like the bed is level, and the truck still has the nose down rake defect.

has a tad higher rake but you have aftermarket leafs right? plus the bed weight might have been more then where the tray is at currently so it will make the front dip a tad more with less weight but overall it looks fine to me as well

oh ive been meaning to ask how do you like your headlights? i was looking at the 800 version with the dual projectors not the triple even thou i really want the triple.
