Sweet project and nice work, Frank! Be sure and post lotsa pics as you go. What was the prob w the tubs that needed adjusting and how did you tackle that? I'm finishing my tubs but dont have tires under it yet. The way I'm approaching it is to ensure I have 14 1/2" i.d. @ 10 and 2:00 and then rolling the lips. Keep going man...

well the problem was I had no wheels so did not know dimension and clearance nothing like placing a tire and seeing it in there. I just followed instructions and well I just din't cut enough into the rails. so as you can see I had to cut it up again. but I inproved it by placing 1/8 metal plate on inner inside of rail and then building the out side out of one piece.
thanks

Yeah, we fit/measured 100x and then cut for clearance. We also had to put 1/8" reinforcement on the backside of the framerails. GM coulda given us a better location to start with...
