The rear was easier than the front because the front top body line is at a sharper angle towards the cab. It took me longer to blend the body work and get that line straight. If I was to do it again I think I would cut the front section out as close to the cab as I could that way body work would be less. I also had trouble cutting the Interier bed walls on the same line as the outer. I tried several different methods but ultimately ended up with gaps I had to weld metal back into to cover.
