The seats won't be any taller then the factory seats. If we cut them down below the window then they would be at my nipples and i'm short.

I like the "ebay style" post myself...

Seats are cool Marty, I agree with cutting them down way short so they are not taller than the bottom of the rear window. Truck is looking good!

Good Morning All,

As everyone know's i'm a big fan of Bell Tech.
I've used there stuff on all of my truck builds and it's worked out great each and every time.



Previously installed on the truck was there Sway Bar.
www.belltechcorp.com





When Precision Brakes built my front Brake Kit they used a generic Spindle.
The intention has always been to install Bell Tech Drop Spindles.

This is where I normally would insert a picture of the actual spindle they shipped me.
However, we all know Kenny's not good with the Camera so the guy's at Bell Tech sent me a nice image.



I really happy to working with another great company and I look forward to working with them on future projects.

ps - don't worry I have 4 more posts sitting in the que

Good Morning All,

Yet, another modification that is so simple and may never be noticed.

From the Factory the body line on the "A" pillar was going in the wrong direction.



It actually touched the corner of the fender and was about 3/4" up near the door.



After a little metal work it looks stock.



It's all the little details that make the difference
