Fitted on the two sides today. I discovered I had some issues with the wheel wells dropping a bit when the original sides were cut off. This left me with a bit of a gap to lclose. I ended up using a floor jack and ratchet strap. Using the strap to hold the jack tight to the box frame I then jacked it up with a block of wood. This pressed the wheel well in tight to the side panel and I could get some good tac welds in.
