I want to add to the sea of compliments you have here. Very nice truck, and inspiring! That bed your building is gonna be rad. Also I am in the middle of reading and researching still but when you decided to go for the body drop, what does that have to do with your stock floor and seat brackets? I am missing something?

There's a couple different ways to body drop these trucks. Most common are a traditional body drop and a stock floor. Stock floor means nothing changes with the cab. You brace and cut down the frame to get the body on the ground. With a traditional body drop you cut the cab floor and raise it up so the frame tucks up higher so the rockers lay flat. I ended up doing a traditional bd so in order to keep my head room I chopped the seat brackets down 2.5" because the cab floor came up 2.5"

Little update. Ended up getting new wheels over winter/early spring. Got a set of Hot Rods By Boyd in a 22x8.5 and a 22x10 for the rear. Went with a deeper dish rear wheel this time. I narrowed the rear end 2.5" per side to accommodate the extra dish and had Moser make new axles to fit the shorter rear end
