Re: 1970 C10 ChassisFab Build Thread

Nice job on the tubs. Did you have to get extra tubs for your filler piece? When I did mine I used scrap that I cut out of my inner bed sides when I raised the floor. I still need to finish welding my tubs, it's been over a year!

That's super clever I hadn't even considered that! I did buy two tubs for each side... I wish they still made CHUB TUBz in the stock wheel width

Nice clamp usage! Those pieces aren’t going anywhere

New tailgate fits alright! Working on the bed floor, rear tubs, and tailgate filler panel.

How did it line up with the bed sides? I need a tailgate, not sure if I want to go the LMC cheaper route or pony up and buy an OG old metal tailgate.

I can't complain with this one from LMC. I used the stock hinges and handle with it to make it feel more "solid" like the original
