olddodgeguy Posted March 24, 2009 Report Share Posted March 24, 2009 Click on the quick reply icon on a previous message. Click on Go Advanced button. Scroll down to attachments. Click on attachments and that brings up a computer browse. Browse through your pics and select the ones you want to post. That should do it. Good luck.

woodscavenger Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 I hope you have some lead in the rear to keep it hooked up with the power you have under the hood. It will be interesting to see a finished side profile of the truck with that short bed. I hope it looks great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
