+1, that's how I did mine. I set my cab and mounted my front sheet metal to get the front wheels set in the center of the wheel well.
When all said and done, my cab mounts were exactly 2 in. forward of the oval hole in the side of the frame, which is what another member, Bartman, had noted where he put his. Also I based the height of the cab on info I got from 99 to Life's build thread. As said before, lots of great info on this board.
After the cab and front sheet metal were done, I then did the running boards and bed.
Cool project by the way, I'll be following along.
