Here are some side by side pictures with a factory tub.

I just figured out that the tubs will fit the 73-87 C10s just a well as they fit the 67-72s! They will also fit the 60-66's trucks, but will require a small amount of fiberglass work. Let me know if you have any questions.

Curious..... Are you adding additional material to the flange to install these in the 73-87's? It seemed like when I test fit my mini-tubbed 67-72 wheel tubs on the bed floor of my dually, the flanges were about 2" shy on each end from being long enough.

I did see that & its why I asked. I built mini-tubs for my old 68 swb. I had the tubs sitting around so I mocked them up on my duallys bed floor. When sitting directly on top of the wheel opening in the floor, the 67-72 tubs were short vs the floor opening.

How much wider are the "wide" ones Rob?

Sorry for the diversion, however it is pretty cool seeing a product come to life and being sold. Now even an updated wider one is available. Chubtubz...now chubbiertubz?
