We actually outsource the SWB fleetside bedside. We'd like to have just the rear lower corner to reproduce.

The aux battery tray was shipped to the factory last week. This should be a quick turnaround because it looks like the one bracket won't require any tooling; just a brake and a program for the laser cutter to add the holes.

The LWB bedsides are now scheduled to leave by the end of May- not sure why they're delayed.

Re: Updates *pics*

put me down for one of the smooth cowls sweet idea!!!! It would also be a good idea to make complete steel floors for the shortbeds they already have them for the 73-87 guys. The repo cabs would be a hit to i think that stuffs getting harder to find in good shape.

yes. There was a minor issue that needed to be corrected (normal on a newly developed item) and they're pretty close to shipping.

I have a LWB and have no plans to shorten the frame. I also have an extra bed I mayde unloading it is a little rough but good for a work truck. I like the LWB trucks and bought mine because it was a LWB. It is going to look great when it is done.
