got the lights done and went to put the cab back on and realized because i had to reverse the front cab mounts in order to accomodate the lightbars below i had to raise the bunk floor up to even it off so using 4 brass threaded fifth wheel coupler high nuts out of the kit did the job for me

That looks really good bigford and its funny the reaction you get from people when they see them in person after seeing pictures, they don't realize how big they can get!
