makeing some progress on the bed.... its starting to look like a bed again.....since we narrowed the rear end, we had to tub it....since the dash is round and the stock tubs wouldnt match anything
( they are square-ish) we desided to do a round tub..... at first we wanted 'BIGGEST' tubs, but after makeing them 24" wide, it really subtracted from the rest of the bed....all you focused on was how wide they were, and didnt notice anything else......so they were trimmed down (16.5" wide) till they were finally 'BIG' but less of a distraction, and more of a complament to the rest of the bed.......here is the process, trial fit them in there, notch the bottom for axle clearence, trim to make it fit flush with the inner bed side, build a mounting flange, weld it on, and temperally cleco it in place.....and lastly for looks i sat the wood in there....of coarse some peices of wood will need to be specially cut/ fitted, but you kinda get the picture....sorry first pic is so fuzzzzy
