Ok Brad thanks so much, I hope you dont mind but Im going to have a lot of questions on this....i want to do it right since im going to be spending thousands of dollars on this truck. Is it ok if I PM you with my photos and questions? that way i wont eat up space here on the site. Your floor pans were in good shape compared to mine. so since the square channel mounts are gone I take it those are the first thing i start with since I can bolt them to the frame and work out from there?. and I understand your reason for starting with one side at a time.
