Progress on the single cab. The spray paint read...POOP and POS until my wife wanted it changed.

I've replaced the wheel well, both outriggers, inner/outer rocker, both jack points and working on the dogleg. I took moday and tuesday off, hoping I can get the drivers side all worked out.

Some of the damage I'm working with...Its either rolled over, or a big tree fell on it. This was disquised under lead.

There's a lot of stuff that he repops that isn't listed anywhere. Best to just call him. If he doesn't repop it, sometimes he'll still make it for you. That's what he did on my DC rear corner replacement.

I just emailed him. He said they don't make it because its really hard to get the parts right. He suggested finding a doner. It looks like up to the b-pillar is the same as a split bus. Any parts buses in houston?
