    Then use the herculiner. Roll it on too i guess. It may end up looking a bit more rugged

    the rustoleom has a texture like a medium grit sandpaper, not too soft but not rough as hell. line X is more gritty, but the rhinoliner i have on my truck is smooth and tough as crap

    im looking into buying a wrecked 4x4 truck and swapping my cab on it i found a truck in grand prarie tx for 600 so i think i might make a move on it if its still there after christmas and im checking locally also but yards usually dont sell full cars. NO I DO NOT WANT TO DO A STRAIGHT AXLE i need this to be like a swap that take a week or less so no SAS for now

    now my question im looking for a manual t case so i do if i get the manual one what electrial stuff will i have to do i really dont give 2 ****s about the light in the dash so what else will be needed

    The only thing I don't like about bedlined rockers is its a pain to clean especially living on a dirt road:Grenade:

    just make sure the frame is in good condition and not bent. i don't think you needed anything if you get a manual T case since its directly shifting the transfer case you shouldn't need any electrical stuff? could be wrong..
