finally got some extra time to work on the truck. i dry fit the bed so i can see how to frame out the new floor. i'm going to cut out all the old stuff and build a whole new raised bed floor that will be flat, so no hole or notch. then i'll have the whole thing lined. oh and scored a deal on a solid window, anybody ever swap one, how hard is it? looks like it's glued in.

I never took my back window out, we used it for sketching ideas alot...

OT- Dude the truck is coming along, dig the exhaust exit (looks like your done with tailgates). The truck is SL...........AMMED.

thanks, i took the hood off b/c i had to fix the filter housing and it was just easier to take it off. i am putting on a steel cowl hood though, but i'll do that when i paint the bed. i did the exhaust like that b/c i didn't have the bed on, i'm gonna run a single black 6" stack.

oh and it's not low enough yet...:D

x2, Id let a professional do it. I did it on my last prerunner and removing the old glue and making a perfect seal with the new certainly was a PITA! Sh ouldnt be more than $100 or so like Tommy said.

man you go any lower adn you'll never get into burger express's drive way. and theres no way to drive that thing out of your town with the roads the way they are.
nice to see if coming along. now you just have to get rid of that edge box and put some real power in there.
