That's the factory skid plate right? What truck got those? My 77 had one, my 80 does not.

Yeah factory tank skid. My 85 had it. K5 of course.
With hubcaps
Put the interior somewhat together so parts don't fall off at Tuttle. Also got my cb mounted.
Got my spare mounted and swapped the tire I chunked.
I didn't like the rake the truck had, so I cut the rear shackles from 6" to 4.5". I'mhappy with it.
Loaded up for Tuttle in the morning.

Glad to see the CB. Last time Ebke had to dust his off. Mine is mounted in the same spot and has been for years. Never one issue with that location.
Where are you guys mounting the antenas?
Wheres the other pedal?
I need to figure this out as well.
I just have a magnet one I stick to the roof. I've broken a couple of the fixed ones at Tuttle.
I used the bottom bracket from my spare tire mount.
In my last truck I had it mounted there, but it never really seemed loud enough to hear while driving. I bought an external speaker (and a pa speaker for the front end) so it was quite loud and clear.
I had a magnet mount for a while but on tighter trails with trees it would get knocked loose and do the swing into the window and hit my wife in the face. Eventually bought a spring base for a stick antenna. Stiff enough where it didn't flop around like a wire whip, but would bend far enough over to not break off on a tree.
Spring base FTW. I don't have one yet, but it is the answer.
I could've brought mine down. Not like I'm
Using it.
Using it.
I had a spring base too with a wire and it didn't rip off.. The magnet in mind was toast anyway
