Re: A different approach to a LWB to SWB conversion

I think it looks nice. When I did mine, I was concerned about the falling body line also (Swamp Rat, if you look at the upper body line on the bed it actually tapers down at the rear) but after reading one of the other tutorials, I did the screwdriver trick of prying the bed out a little to match the seams, it worked perfectly and you can't tell there was a difference in the drop since the outer skin is so flexible.

Welding is a lot like sex, you don't have to be great with the rod as long as you thoroughly prep the surface and your good at grinding
