I was looking at your page 1 pic with the the GMC bed---it looks like the tires only protrude about 4-5" beyond the fender lip. Are you going to cut down the stepside fenders to 6" or so? Just curious about that. You have to cut them anyway to make them fit the body contour, I guess.

While I was skimming CL, I saw a long bed stepside truck in there that gave me a thought (for if I ever do a C30, which I'd love to do). What do you think about a step bed with widended fenders? Is that just TOO funky?
