A few more pics for today. You can see how the inside of the door jamb is now finished with the channel being flushed out and smooth now. Gives it a much cleaner look.

The truck is in between a few other projects so getting a decent side shot is tough until I can roll it forward. Here's a couple shots of the bed on though.

It's still in pieces. We had to take at all apart in order to raise the floor up and still preserve the stock wheel wells. Rather than make new ones, we'll widen the stock ones so it has a somewhat factory look.

Just for reference, the wheels that are on there are just for mock up. The new ones will have the correct backspacing and width so they sit a lot further out. THe ones on there now look silly...

Working on the bed now. I'll shoot a few pics of the modded factory tubs as soon as they're finished.

There was a lot of work in fitting and assembling the bed, so rather than bore you all with mundane pictures of that, I figured 'd wait until some cool work was done.

Here's a few shots of the wheel tubs that were widened and a few of how we raised the wheel opening on the bed. IMHO raising the lip makes the biggest difference when the trucks are this low. It really gives it the right proportions when contrasted with the rear wheels.

Anyhow, enjoy the pics.

Man, this flu has kicked my butt. I come back, and all the wheel well openings are a lot higher that they were when I left, LOL..

Here's a few pics.
