This truck is amazing. I love the look of it. I didn't go through all 65 pages, but am very interested in your bed. Did you ever get it done? (I am wanting to raise the bottom and run a flat wood bed as well)

**67cheby** · 05-12-2011, 05:09 PM

unfortunately the front inners have had me a little distracted, the body work on the inside of the bed is complete the only thing left is the rear crossmember at the bottom of the tailgate !!

**67cheby** · 05-12-2011, 05:11 PM

however ...i didnt raise mine enough to make the floor totally flat i will still have a notch cover, (i raised mine 4 1/2 inches) i dont care for the look it takes to totally cover the notch , i wanted mine deeper than that, i do have a really cool idea that should make my notch cover unique !!

RatRod68 · 05-12-2011, 05:20 PM

ahh, ok. I agree with you, the beds that are only like an inch deep are not my favorite.

I'm not going as low as you body dropped guys are though.

Still keeping the stock crossmember, just going with the air ride kit.

I'll be following along with the build for sure. I love the new inner fenders. That is cool as hell

thats what i said when i started lowering mine....LOL !! you better get off this website now !!

RatRod68 · 05-12-2011, 05:42 PM

na, I just don't want to redo the motor and tranny mounting. lol

**67cheby** · 05-12-2011, 05:45 PM

ok, ok, i am going to save this so i can show it to you a year from now......HA HA

RatRod68 · 05-12-2011, 06:06 PM

lol. Ok. I dunno when i am going to start tearing mine down again. There are a lot of things i want to do to it that can be done over the weekend kind of deal, and still keep it driving. It gets the best milage out of all my vehicles, so when its not raining or snowing, I'll be driving it.

my advice dont tear it down until you have all of the stuff done that you can do and still drive it ...i am sick of all of my money sitting there and not being able to drive it!!

I cant wait to just put the body back on for once but I have to wait for something called Accuair E-level to show up before I move foward.....sucks because I already have and AZ pro kit for the truck but the wife insisted on the other. Pshh women.

**67cheby** · 05-12-2011, 06:18 PM

**67cheby** · 05-12-2011, 06:28 PM

**67cheby** · 05-12-2011, 06:29 PM

**67cheby** · 05-12-2011, 07:10 PM

belowme51 · 05-12-2011, 07:19 PM

68 TT · 05-12-2011, 10:11 PM

**67cheby** · 05-13-2011, 10:53 AM
