Welcome Aboard!!!! Sounds like you have a ton of fun ahead with the frame chop. Actually its not bad, 12" out between front&rear cab mounts, remove the front bed mounts on top of frame move rear cab mounts back 12" and lope 8" off rear of frame for 2wd, for 4wd drive I find it is easier to lope the 12" out between the rear cab mount and the 2nd from front bed mount as on a 4wd you don't have to worry about the position of the crossmember that trailing arm attaches to.

May those who love us, love us, any of those who do not love us, may God turn their hearts.
And if God is unable to turn their hearts, may he turn their ankles so we may know them by their limping.

A man who works with his hands is a laborer; a man who works with his hands and his brain is a craftsman; but a man who works with his hands and his brain and his heart is an artist.
