Looks good to me. Although now I think I'm eventually going to do a drivetrain swap into my shortbox instead of shorten the frame on the 90. :grin:

I want a 3rd gen 1500 RCSB or a shortened 2500...

This is sick! I wish I had a reg cab and not the extended cab...

Went and looked so I could post a link. All gone, got the "photobucket deleted this image" or whatever sign where the pics were.
Sorry. :(

Brett did you ever decide on a color? I know the bed I got off yours was a whole lot heavier then the one I took off my truck lol.

no, I didn't get any pics of the frame before we welded it and added the fishplates, and boxed it in.

Oh, and Andy, it's got to go back white. Can't afford the expensive colors
