    If I build it from 2x6 or 3x6 tube it will also allow me to reposition the drivetrain back a bit,.. The firewall may need some mods. moving the frame rails in on the rear will allow for more and better tire tuck, on the front I can skid the inner fenders,.. Whoot

    The bed will be just box sides with a floor and some tube,... Oh the wheels are turning,..

    Well the one huge advantage is I won't have to rework all the OEM stuff to make it survive,... Purpose build vs retrofitting
