Close enough for me!  :hammer: a piece of wood up in between the dent and the stake pocket. Popped the dent out, little more  :hammer: and the tail light fits good. Replaced my nonworking transmission backup light switch with a manual one on the dash and slowed down the idle for winter. (a pain on a C U M M I N S but I'm getting good) It idles slow in hot weather and the A/C bogs it down more so I adjust it up.. In the winter with no A/C and the cool air it idles 1k RPM. I'd like to hook a control cable to the adjuster bolt so I can do it from the cab whenever I want for wheeling/high idle/whatever.

Seems it would be easier to teach your truck not to jump than do all that body work? Ive got a dent fix next time your up the hill stop by and use it. It will get it a bit closer. I also some unique dollys that should fit up in there?

Last night I remembered that the way the PO ran the exhaust, it rubs on the pass rear shock....that shock is dead. Probably why it jumped so violently. When I hit the rock it compress the spring and with no shock to dampen it, it went boing!
