Thanks a lot! Good read. Got a friend who's a certified welder and we actually have the entire parts frame cut up into sections, we're replacing the whole rear quarter from the rear shackle mounts back, so this just adds to the work. I'm willing to let the sheet metal go with this but I need to keep the same frame. That's where all the character is, driveline and interior! All we have to find is a good strong welder. I'm still not sure where this will go, stock or fullwidths and 37s, just depends on what my vision is when it's close to done. Either way, I need all the strength I can get!
