The cab corners from GMCPauls came in... They are a little narrower than the LMC cab corners and they don't have near as many die marks/dents on them. However after tac welding them on they still flare out in the back due to being too wide. I'm just gonna go ahead and cut 1/4 or so out of the width and make them fit like they're supposed to. I'm really aggravated. I've parused through countless build threads and not seen anyone have to do this... Don't understand. Hung a door tonight and it lines up fine so I know without a doubt the rear pillar is positioned correctly. Just for the record both sets of corner are made in Taiwan. :-/
