Re: Raising the bed floor 67cheby
 

That is some nice work on the bed, your body shop does great work! What interior color are you going with?

Have you decided if you will make it to the Nat's?

Re: Raising the bed floor 67cheby
 

the outside will be silver , with red interior, i hope i can get to the natls if i do im sure it will be without my truck !!! hopefully we will get to start the step notch this week

Re: Raising the bed floor 67cheby
 

Either way, hopefully you can make it. :D

Re: Raising the bed floor 67cheby
 

A few more update pics, got my cpp crossmember in, moved it back one inch. Started bracing the frame and knocked out one million pop rivets...man those things are in there!!!! a thank you to Brian at Mayhews Race cars for all of the help !!

Re: Raising the bed floor 67cheby
 

a few pics of the bed in first prime, sitting on the truck... I know everyone is going to like the front bed spacers.. a lot of engineering went into them..LOL

Re: Raising the bed floor 67cheby
 

Looks good bro, I raised mine 6", but Im thinking about going more before I weld it all up, as I have plans of being lower in the future

Are you planning on Z'ing the frame ???

Re: Raising the bed floor 67cheby
 

no i am not zing it, this is about as low as i will get. any pics of your bed ??? i woul like to see it , are the fenders touching the bed lip ??

Re: Raising the bed floor 67cheby
 

Nice work!

Re: Raising the bed floor 67cheby
 

I havent finished my bed yet, but when done, the fenders will most likely be touching & I plan to make my own instead of using the stock ones

Heres a link to the page my bed mods are on

Re: Raising the bed floor 67cheby
 

Thursday my dropmember is going to be here also ordered a porterbuilt rear 4 link , sway bar, hood hinges, hopefully by monday there will be lots of new pics here

Re: Raising the bed floor 67cheby
 

did you make your exhaust or did you purchase it made. i assume its from your stock manifolds to the Y

Re: Raising the bed floor 67cheby
 

its nice to actually see foto's on how to raise a stock floor allway figured they just welded the floor higher on the sides but they raise the sides as whell ...... makes it look a lot better

Re: Raising the bed floor 67cheby
 

i had the exhaust made by Mayhews Race cars, they do a great job.. thanks on the bed floor i think it is the only way they look right !!
