Greg-
I raised my floor two inces and also added mini tubs due to the width of my rear tires. I have attached some pics to give you a better idea.
I bought them from this web site
http://dancarpenters.com/tubb.html
They are 2 3/4 inch wide, They are expensive but they are very nice qualtity. They also offer different widths.
Raising the floor wasn't that hard. The hard part is what to do with the back of the bed at the tailgate. When you raise the floor it will leave you with a gap when you lower the gate. I added a steel filler panel to cover mine. I can take a pick of this if it will help. I am also running a rear roll pan though.
This is the before picture. It gives yopu an idea of how large the tubs are. I cut quite a bit off.
Fishised and welded.
Looking good.
Marc
