Good luck
You mean take the stock K5 mount shown, flip it upside down and raise it high enough to meet the cab? Obviously adding some metal to the side that attaches to the frame and filling in the "bottom" side to make it flat?

Good idea.

What do you think about the channel going all the way across?

Support our troops, stand behind 'em or get in front of 'em.

What country can preserve its liberties if its rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance?
