get the truck up on jack stands an use shims to level off the frame front to back and side to side that way you will have a level frame and be able to look underneth where your cutting to make sure you clear all your brake,electrical,and air lines look on like devious kustoms web site to get an idea were to cut the cab there is more than one way to do it so once you see whats going on youll beale to figure out what to cut and what not to

hope this helps you get started and good luck
