I recently purchased a c20 long bed. I know short beds are becoming harder and harder to find unless you have a wallet full of cash. I've been reading about the conversion you can where you take out 12" from under the cab and 8" off the back and converting it to a short bed. It looks relatively straightforward. "Looks" being the keyword. I'm considering this conversion for my truck and wondered if anyone here has had experience with it? I would love to see pics and hear your thoughts. Was it easy, or do you regret doing it? More hassle than it's worth? I'd love to hear feedback. Thanks in advance.
