The main thing is that you are doing the truck with your son! the more time you spend together the better! its going to be a great project for you and, in my opinion a fantastic way to stay close to your teen aged son! have fun and best of luck to you and your son. (its going to make great memories for both of you) cheers, Pat

Freakshow, I will tell ya to hang onto the lockouts and keep your cab if you can. Just some important advise. Don't throw out anything from it. Common mistake for a first project. Hope this helps, and good luck bud. Trevor
