Hey thats my tread listed above, i was just about to say look on FSC forum fo pics. 88-98s are easy as hell to stock floor. only go 2.5in and no cut are made to the cab floor.

no, i tried to put them on, and they hit on the pass side, so i had to beat the firewall with a hammer, chipped off the bedliner, now whenever i work on the thing again, i'll have to cut a spot on the firewall, and patch it so it isnt waavy where i hit it with a hammer... then bedline it again...
