The lower jamb piece I thought turned out great. I had a few hours fitting it but welded it up and hit it with some 36 grit pads and it cleaned up nice

Hung the door and fender before welding the rocker in cab corner. I'm happy with fit and finish of it all.

Feels like a huge accomplishment that it finally rolls. No more jack stands! Rolled it out of the garage so I could clean yesterday sure was nice

Really nice job with the rust repairs on the cab, wish my cab corners looked that good.

Thanks Keith. Pictures are a little deceiving, the back of the cab corners are a little bumpy but I think should smooth out fine

I bought a reproduction fender, don't remember the manufacture, and just kept fighting it to make it fit. I got so frustrated I cut up the fender and fixed my original. I'm officially a firm believer there is no replacement for oe metal

Thanks sir. I've always been a fan of the in cab tank. I can understand the efi guys moving them but this big block is gonna be drinking right out of the cab. I've been using a miller 140. It's been great, my first time welding with gas and all I can say is wow

Driver side was about the same as far as work but only partial inner rocker and this side needed a little bit of the floor pan

I lucked out, all the cab supports were good so I just hit them with some rust converter and primed them

Thanks Cameron, how's yours coming along? Hope to attend my first meet next year with my truck. Hector I ended up going with your tires size, looks much better now in my opinion. Can't wait to see those rally's on your truck.

Haven't made much progress but I hope to bend up all of my brake lines starting next week.

Rust is evil. Found a little more when trying to fill a pin hole. Took a 2" wholesale and made a series of holes till I found no more rust
