i have both those tools the die grinder takes only 4 1/2 disks which wasnt long enough to reach what needed to be cut. and the sawsall didnt make enough sparks for me.

rick, stock floor really, just pull the front frame piece, and add tubing, weld anywhere possible, make sure angles and all width and all are PERFECT. cab will have to come off, along with the bed, and all, its pretty much building a new frame without the front end delimmas. and yah, box in EVERYTHING no matter what.

i guess well just have to see how long it takes for us to back half it and make the new upper and lower arms with the toyota hubs. were also gunna try everything possible to get me to stock hood without a side draft carb. but yea if everything is running smooth and we got a lot of time left i think ill take that BISH TO THE DOOR! I gotta find a nice chop saw like one with the angle selectors and stuff. but i dont feel like dropping $200 on one.
