What types of things are good to do while the cab is stripped and off the truck for a resto? I have found some info about reinforcing the cowl area with a metal patch to prevent or repair cracking; adding a drain to the clean air vents to remove water and debris that build up; adding reinforcements to the door skin and lower hinges; and cutting an access panel into the roof, using a donor roof to make a larger panel so as to get access to the inner portion of the outer roof skin. I have links on my PC that I can upload later if anyone needs clarification. Aside from the previous, are there any other bodymods that would be good to tackle while I can rotate, maneuver, and weld on the bare sheet metal?
