Thanks BruthaMan. I hatched the basic idea of how I wanted it done but my mentor in the picture conceived the one 24" standard, the two 12" standards to make it accurate and he did all the welding. At first I wanted to do a short Z cut, and he wanted to do a straight cut behind the cab mount bracket. We went home after the first night without a firm decision, and we both came back the next morning with the exact same plan to remove the cab mounts mainly because we knew the rivets would get in the way of the stiffeners plus we needed more stiffener in the back half for alignment. I was mainly a grunt, but he made it happen.
