Thank you to all for your comments. I hauled the free bed liner home today. Also I received my MpGuino fuel mileage gauge a couple days ago and got it hooked up today. It is working great! Still need to build a case for it and calibrate it a little better but the fuel mileage it is reporting seems pretty close to what I had determined previously. The front bumper is 18" from the ground and the front differential is 9" from the the ground. What I am thinking about is using the front part of the bed liner as an air dam and letting the lower part serve as the belly pan. My two concerns are: 1. Is the curved transition from the air dam to the belly pan a bad thing? 2. Is having the air dam and pan 9" from the ground too high to be effective? Incidentally the bed liner is the same width as the front bumper so it can wrap around the sided but the tires will stick out about 3" on each side. I'll try to get some pics tomorrow before I start wacking it up.
