Thanks for the info Max. I am going to check it out today when I'm at the shop to see what I can do in the way of a truss, I'm sure I can come up with something cool and functional. The truck is going to be bagged but will sit with a rake when aired out without the frame laying so it won't relax as much as a truck that lays frame, this should help with the bed/cab gap. My next question would be that I am pretty sure that there willl be a splice in the frame near the front clip because of some of the bends it will need, what do you recomend for re-enforcment of the joint? I would usually put a diamond shape gusset on the outside and call it good but I'm pretty sure this guy isn't going to like the look of that. Would a would a diamond gusset on the inside of the tubing plug welded and welded in with the butt joint be sufficient? The welds would be TIG for maximum penetration and I could offset the splices from one side to the other if it is necessary. I could probably do the splice at the front body mount now that I think about it and use the body mount to help strengthen the joint, I'll look into that today as well. Any input you can offer would be great. Thanks for your advise, I really appreciate it. Keep up the good work!
