Sorry, I should have specified, I have a panel truck, but your explanation makes sense for suburbans!

BlueJeep · 09-04-2010, 11:22 PM

Looking good! Do the inner kick panels need to be replaced as well?

How'd you form the transmission tunnel, did you bend it around a round object, form it in a slip roll, etc?

**CHIZZLER** · 09-05-2010, 12:29 PM

Yes inner kick panels are getting replaced.we rolled the metal and fit it from the bottom.
