And it would be very easy to do now that the cab is off of the frame. We are happy to hear all input on every part of the build. Even if it you feel it wont work. This is a first for us too. Thanks for all of your input ...Norm...
I personally think that would be the best route at this point. Not trying to be a dick, just not feeling that frame at all. Myself I would cut one frame on the long side, and then compensate with the other frame on the back half, then box in the section in the middle. Would save you guys ALOT of work I would think, and be alot better in the end. Just look what some of us have done to make the CCSB trucks and cut/weld frame along those lines.....except you are making yours longer.

Keep plugging away, you will get things to flow.
