So was looking @ what projects I have to address this winter! Truck won't lay out fully & I found the problem. Seems when I remade the rear lower shock mounts I made them a bit too long & they hit the notch. So will have to cut them off & remake them. Also will be making new air hard lines @ the bed as have to move the water traps . And @ the same time will make the center of the notch cover removable. Just a few things to keep me busy this winter!!
I do wish I had planned that in @ the beginning ! At this time it would be too much to change to be worth it!
