Hi All,

It's all about the little details that no one may ever notice.

This is how the bed gap looks on a Stock s10 -- Not so good.



Sliding the bed forward you can solve the gap problem.
However, you will need to stiffen the chassis to prevent the bed from twisting and hitting the cab.



Of Course this then leads to the next problem.
The bed is just a little wider then the cab.



So off comes the bed.
Now it's time to drill out all of the spot welds that hold the bed sides on the truck



Just a close up of the fun that Dave had drilling spotwelds

It's not over yet - it's actually just beginning.
This is proof that you fix one problem and it just makes the other problems look worse.

You can see that the cab has an excessive curve to it - now that has got to get fixed.



You can see that Kenny is hard it here.
This is proof that Kenny is an all around Builder.



Time to start slinging some mud.



The bed had to come off so you can see the work Kenny did on the "B" Pillars



Now this is how it should have come from the factory
