LWB to SWB Conversion - cutting the frame?

I know i saw someone with a thread about doing this but can't find it. i know you take 8 inches off the rear and 12 out of the center but wanted to see some pics. Seems like someone did it and got most of the bed mounts lined up for the SWB? Anybody know where to find this thread? Thanks.

This site has a wonderful FAQ section that can be found here http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/f...splay.php?f=28

I personally like the Index version of it found here http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=157669

Specifically what you need is here Where to cut frame
