I forgot to mention that the gas tank was moved to the back ,so you can see in one of the last pic's the hole was filled.
I posted a pic of the inside of the cab before the new low tunnel is installed.
Its highly likely I'm related to that fee-fi-fo-fum guy that "chased Jack down the beanstock"...so this is good for me.., its a little more room to stretch out the legs on road trips.
