Pulled the running boards, bumper, spare tire, hitch and everything underneath. Drilled the floor and rockers out. Hope to have everything cut a part tomorrow.

Windshield out and inner rockers cut. All I have to do is cut the windshield post and the frame.

Looking for pictures of the tanks.
I was admiring the last round of pictures and thought of something, Ford switched the shocks from both in front of axle to one front/one behind at some point on the super duty's. Will the Ex tank clear the rearward shock? Or just reweld the shock mount on the axle front side?

Shocks will be staggered. The 08 was the same way. One in front one in back.

No. I used an self etching epoxy primer. I don't like spray in bed liner material because it gets to thick and if it starts to rust by time you realize it you frame will probably be rotted through and it doesn't come off with a sand blaster.

I couldn't tell by the picks. Yea the self etching epoxy is way better. Are you keeping it the color of the 12' or is it going to be a custom paint job?
