First, welcome to the best place on the Internet for these trucks! We love pictures, so please introduce us to your truck.

Many stick with the stock frame, others find a donor from a newer truck, and yet others go new aftermarket. I believe that advice can vary depending upon direction. So again, introduce us to your truck and share your vision and various advice and opinions will follow.
