Just as new to this body work as you are, but Ive already started cutting and welding.
#1 first rule I learned (from a friends mistakes) Brace everything! Even if you think the panel your gonna cut out doesnt support other areas measurements, if at all possible, brace the area around your cutting area.
Additionally, if at all possible , have the cab sitting on something stationary and take measurements all around your piece
IE: Your front lower hinge pocket, measure that puppy from the hinge pocket to the latch side door jamb, hinge pocket to inner step, hinge pocket lower to hinge pocket upper and so on.
One last piece of advice that you'll hear alot. Cut your "hole" small, and grind to fit.
Good luck!
