milkman,
Thanks for the nice reply. Yes, I do love my old truck. Seems like it's always been there for me. A few years ago, put an antique personized tag on it. It says: ~~~~~ Louisiana Antique * TWO GUNS *
Believe it or not, tag only cost $35.00 . ( This is a forever tag) never have to pay another cent for any other tag fees ~ it never expires !!!!!!!!

Sweet Machine!!!!!!!!!!! What did you use for the bedliner and what part of the prep was key? Thinking about doing this myself. Any advice would be appreciated.

i used duplacolor bedliner and have had great results also prep is the key sand everthing with 60 grit sandpaper blow out with air and wipe twice with wax gloss remover similer to what you would used on auto paint prep i done the bed my hard top it was orange and it looks better black and also the brush guard i put two coats on everything i used a gallen and let i set 2 hours between coats and let it set in the sun for 1 day its is so haed you can not get your finger nail in it very satified

MikeyD,
Thanks for the comments...
I used Herculiner.. Got it at the autoparts store...
The biggest thing is sand or scuffing the bed or whatever surface you are going to put it on...
Then wipe it down real good with Xylol or whatever your choice is as far as wax and grease type remover... Go slow... take your time I did 2 coats and I think it looks pretty good... Tape any areas you dont want it in...
I did the side rails as well so did not really have to tape too much...
The front bumper I took off as I was worried it would splatter as it seems to do that if you try and load up the roller or go too fast...
This is a very doable DIY project and one heck of allot cheaper than LineX..
Only time will tell if it last as long...
I had LineX done on my 900 and I think the bed and front bumber was around $350.. I have about $85 in this...
Lastly and MOST IMPORTANTLY... wear some gloves...U do not want this stuff on your hands... they will turn black and you can NOT get it off...
Dont ask me how I know that... but I can give you a list of what does NOT work to get it off...
Good Luck and lets see some pics once you get it done...

Oh also was it you that said you were getting some seat covers for your 1100?
I am looking at some 600 - 1000 Deniear or Neoprene Realtree Harwoods fabric to make my own seat covers... but I dont want to reinvent the wheel so let me know if you found some...
