I knew i would not be able to lift and fit the back of the cab by myself because of its size. So I enlisted the help of fellow boardmember bodydropped68 and some other buddys to come over and help. It took us about 15 times or so to get everthing trimmed to fit so it could be tacked up. everthing lined up pretty well but there is still a long way to go.

I had to trim back of cab to clear frame rails i just peeled them up for now
and after i extend frame ill put them back and weld them up.

oilyrag80 · 12-21-2012, 10:20 PM

The rear plate on burb was to long to clear cab so i cut it in half then after cab was in place i simply over laped it to fit back of cab and welded it back in. Then welded it to back of cab this worked out realy well.

Im leaning away from crazy at this point. I really like how it's coming together.
