Go over to cf, look in search look for
cosmo22nov's single cab short bed build.
There are pictures of the complete build.
I made my 3rd gen a short bed, it's a
lot harder to do then yours.

ok, 2/5 drop is done, short bed is going on Saturday. Just wanna say thanks to everyone who helped me out, just have one more question. I don't think that I will have a problem, but just want to make sure that the diesel sending unit will fit in the gasser tank? I have not seen the top of my current fuel tank, but the gasser tank has about a 6 to 7" white sending unit/pump top and a threaded on ring that holds it all together. Does this seem the same as the diesel sending unit/tank? Thanks again for all the help and for helping me with this question.

Sorry, one more question, I've got no idea what would be the best way to clean the gasoline residue out of the tank. Any ideas?

I have cleaned them with a rag and cleaner. You can get your arm quite a ways up in them threw the hole. The sending units are the same size hole.

Sorry for the delay, it has been a while since I have been on. It just quite raining here so I'll get it cleaned up and take some pictures this week.

That's real nice there! Great conversion. How's the handling? Did it change at all?

It handles good, ride is a little rough, but not bad. I think it drives alot better than it did stock. Kinda sad that I need to sell it. Gotta grow up and pay some stuff off.
