Re: S10 frame conversion body mounts

[QUOTE=Thadious;3420113]

Watch the amount of forward slope you put on the cab, since too much will not give you enough play room to raise or lower your front end to get the hood to align on the coweling (noticeable by the large lower gap at the bottom edge of the hood!)

Trust me, I spent the better part of 2 day getting the entire front end just the way I wanted it, with all the best fitting gaps between the panel... even then I had to remount the front mount again because I wasn't happy.

Just curious, why would you put forward slope on the cab? Seems like that would make bed mounting more difficult, and alignment of the cab/bed and running boards more difficult too.
