got the rails fit into the frame this afternoon. took a lot of test fitting and trimming but ya gotta love a plasma! kinda ended up looking like a semi-arched compound miter cut in the 2x4. fits pretty good and next i have to deal with the 1/8"-3/16" of frame that now sits below the new rail. have an idea for that too.

left rail

right rail

i dont have stock exhaust either, but i was worried about clearances with the cab using longer headers, so if i used the shorties that fit to your stock exhaust, they should fit like the manifolds did when i bodydropped my truck....

thanks for the comments and encouragement peeps!

more progress.. rails are tacked in, some beads are ran but more welding coming tommorrow night. top plates are made along with inside fish plates. that was a lot of plasma cutting, fitting, cutting, grinding, etc.. block and empty trans case are in for mockup, still need to find a RCSB shaft. anyways..
