Thanks, that is honestly what I should do if I am going to do this right. Not doing this is just trying to hurry up a situation that is bound to have issues when done... so, yes this is how i should do it. Honestly I knew this but sometimes when part of you says you could just do it this way, and you know that that is not the right way, just having someone to verify what you think is right is... so thank you. At least here shortly the cab will be in sealer... then time to do basic body check then check it on the frame and then final doors, front fenders and hood.
