Knocked out the other side and ran the shift rod tube and e-brake tubes.
Fab'd up some forward area patches for the rear inner wheel wells.

Looks good! That repair should be fun though. Have you got a plan on how to get to it yet? I'd probably cheat and cut the bed open from the top, but welding that piece back afterwards would still be a ton of work...

Yeah going to cut into it from the top and rear, replace the beam and then re-weld all the cut off sections back on.

Awesome work on a truck that others would have scrapped for sure!

Wouldn't it be easier to fit new full height side panels (wheelarch) on the truck?

Would have saved you from doing that long weld?

Not criticizing! Just a question.

Might be harder to roll with all that extra metal weight down low. Laughing
