Parts 90 and 91

Parts 90 are the tailgate. Since I am painting this beast and I need color ink for my printer, I copied the outer surface skin and used it as the main piece for this assembly. This way I can use the original shield emblem once the assembly has been painted. Not all the parts for the rear foldable ladder could be found and I was not understanding the assembly of it until after I cobbled together the part that I did install.

Parts 91 are supposed to be the tie down points for the cargo bed hoops when not being used. several parts are missing. I did not fabricate them and will put the hoops in their normal locations later on.

Parts 92 - Bed fenders

Missing struts at rear of bed. Didn't get good match between cab and bed fenders. Otherwise, rolling the long outside edges was the most difficult part. Even the hinges cooperated for the most part.

It's really starting to take shape now, once the whole project is complete it's going to look spectacular.

Parts 104, 105, 106 and 107 Lights and stuff.

Technically Parts 93 - 102 are supposed to be next according to the instructions, but they are all items to place in to the bed and not actually part of the main vehicle, so I skipped them for now. part 103 is the bed cover, which I am not using.

Anyway, the headlights built up ok considering they are made from petals. (I don't like petals).

The other parts also built up OK except the mounting bracket for 105 was missing as was the round tail light side strip to wrap around the lens assembly.

The bed has been installed and the rig is really starting to look the part, I think. The last picture is to give you a scale reference to how big this thing really is.

Well, you on a finishing line!
All the stuff in the bed is a joy to build... So I too pushed it to the end, to finish on a good note

Thanks Igor! Your build gave me the necessary insight and help I needed to get through this far.

One thing I plan on doing that I have not yet seen is adding the rear spade assembly. If it doesn't work out, I can just add the mounting brackets to the rear frame and still call it done...
