For Those of You Who've Done the S10 Swap - Box Height?

[av8tr33337]

I just remembered probably the most important thing. Put the chassis on jack stands and make sure that it is level front to back and side to side before locating any of the sheet metal. I used the bottom side of the chassis as a reference because it is long and flat through the center section. I used a magnetic level and/or the angle finder mentioned above. As always this is just my 2 cents worth and there are 100 ways to skin a cat.

I am at about the same spot in my build. If anyone could provide (stock or s10 swaped) the distance from the top of the head panel to the cab belt seam that would help me out a lot.

Approximately 9" from the top of the front bed panel to the seam where the top half and the bottom half of the cab connect, in the center of the back of the cab. av8r is right though, there is a sequence of mocking things up that will allow you to get it to look just right.
