greg i am going to reuse the same wood bed floor, raising it 3"-4" from stock, it will sit on the top of the step notch (i made the top surface the same angle as the bed floor

) then ill make front, rear spacers and the center side rail chassis mount spacers. should work out nicely.
thanks kid, i got a lot of catching up to do to get where your at! even though we are not painting the truck there is a ton of work involved.
