Thanks guys.

I am not a certified welder but can lay a decent bead. I am just not comfortable enough with my skills to weld load bearing sections of the frame. Front horns for the BD I'd be OK with.

I'm looking at about a 3" 'cause this will be about the amount of the bedside drop when flipped underneath the bed floor supports. I figured I'd just match that measurement on the cab and clip.

What do you guys think of trimming the top of the frame under the cab?
