Thanks mud.man… I agree, but I wanted to make sure. The truck drove really smooth with the drive shafts like this. I will go ahead and change them to the way I believe they should be. If they need to be changed back I will.

Thanks… I have adjusted to the poor fitting panels.. now I look at what is the best way to make it fit.

BeefyJoe.. I have a high hump from the old cab.. I did some measuring, I will need it….

Keep it up!
Pro.. is not the word I would use… The floor pan fits because I forced it to fit.. I showed it who the boss is...

Hope you are making good progress on your truck..
