Re: ojoe's crewcab shortbed build
Some constructive criticism - what size are those bolts holding the two frames together? Look kinda small to me, I wouldn't trust anything smaller than what holds the rear springs in their hangers. Also if it was my truck I'd weld up the rear vertical edges of the 3/4-ton frame to the outside of the halfton frame, and also the front vertical edges of the halfton frame to the inside of the 3/4-ton frame, wouldn't rely on just the bolts to keep things from shifting in case of an accident.
Other than that I think it looks pretty darn good, only thing it needs is a stepper bed and it'll be just perfect
