Oh yeah can anyone identify this radius arm mount as being a high rider

 

[Clayso17]

If it were me, after having owned both, I would go Extended cab. Just my .02 cents, but I love having a little extra inside storage, not to mention if you're tall, you can put the seats back further...
Although the standard cab standard bed is really good looking...

I keep leaning towards the extended cab too lol its just so much more work.

 

[dad98684]

i would say extended cab also, and bobbed bed or flat bed.
and it is allot more work.
is it going to be a dedicated wheeler?

 

[Clayso17]

No it'll see plenty of street time too

Mid build pics........got the cab off the wrecked frame motor tranny and transfer case swaped over and cab sitting on regular cab frame. Took about 5 in blocks for the front 4 body mounts but its on there now lol

That's not a high rider. If it was there would be a drop plate on that radius arm bracket.

 

[Clayso17]

Guess ill have to change my build tiltle lol

 

[Clayso17]

Havent updated in a while sorry thats my bad. Ive got the body mounted witch was a feet in itself, but its on there now lol. Went to start hooking up the wiring harnesses today and saw that about 2/3 of my harness is cut in half right at the firewall. That and the gas tank having to be removed because the cab was sitting on the filler neck, this thing is about ready to be fired up. Does anyone know how to remove the harness easily without damaging it or the firewall

 

[Clayso17]

Ok now I feel like an idiot, so far the wiring harnesses was the easiest think ive removed of my truck. Did I mention this is my first truck build lol

 

[Clayso17]

Progress is slow but im getting there
