Thank you!

I haven't got to hear it from the outside yet, I can't decide if I like it. Sounds a lot like glass packs on the inside when you open it up, not really what I was looking for, but I don't see changing it any time soon.

She's back in the shop with fuel pump problems, but hopefully I'll have her back out soon.

I cut 5" out of the center of the inner bedsides, then raised the lower section up and welded it back together. I welded 5x3 rectangle tubing to the frame where the bed mounts.
