Bump side dash in a dent?

Has it been done?

Any idea what kind of work would be involved in doing this?

I think the bump dash is welded in. I'd guess you could cut one out and make some simple brackets for it, assuming the overall width is same as or close to the dent dash.

although, didn't the "big" dents have the bump dash? they may be bolted into them being it's a different cab.

Kinda what I was thinking, although the dashes I could pluck from are from bumps.

no doubt about it ,the big boy dents,love to have one with a dump.guess you would have to commit to welding it in,or having an old dent dash and welding the bolt flanges to the bump for mod.it would be cool,,or just leaving it as a bump (beautiful)

I have a few spare dent dashes, so I think I am going to try to cut a bump dash out of one of the JY trucks and see what is what.
