Re: C10CJ: A Pro-touring '71 Stepside on a No Limit Pro-C10 Chassis

Hey guys, sorry for a lack of updates recently. Been busy with the day job, and that doesn't let up until right before Christmas.

So I'm going to see if I can catch you guys up today, so please excuse the post blast.

Once I got the chassis, one of the first things I did was to level it and set the body on for a body fit check. This may seem like a lot of extra work, but I wanted to make sure the body didn't have any major issues once I went to set it on final, since it's a ton easier to do some mods, like on the cab, with the cab off and on a dolly.

Here's some pics showing the body fit. First on was the cab, then the bed, then the front clip and last the grill. I checked all the body lines and gaps during this process. I was impressed in that everything lined up very well with no shims. I had shims with the old chassis.
