Funny my reply did not get posted!!!!!
Space is tight Phil. About a hands width....4 fingers no thumb....
Was planning to use a 6x6 beam (actually 5 3/8x 5 3/8) on the left side but with the 10:50 tires they are two wide..... considered building up some 2x6 but the tire cleats have a tendency of climbing on the boards......so I eye ball the right front fender aiming for 3 inches and then I am sure the left side is OK.
Have to remove the rear view mirrors every time.....so will salvage the special brackets from a cab 12 that allows the use of a folding mirror arm and save the original fixed arm for shows.
Was getting a little tired of climbing over the back of the cab, the tool box and into the cargo box...... now I can just drive in open the side door and walk out. The side door will also give me access to the battery for removal during the Winter .
.
Now I can go back to working on the steel roof.
Cheers
