Re: my build thread
Well finally some real progress for this build thread. I bought 2 stepside beds for 125 bucks. Sold one for half and picked up some year correct stepside fenders for 50 bucks. So in the process of thinking about shortening my frame I just decided I would rather build a custom back half from the cab back. I made it out of 2x4 and has a 7'' notch built in. The front tube is just in there to keep it square. And when I cut my frame and weld it in it will be a shortbed. All the bracketry is out of 1/4'' plate. It will be a wishbone style 4 link. The bed will have a false floor, should only lose half of it.
