That's pretty cool looks like a nice truck. I've thought about doing that to my 97, I decided not to because i need the bed space, and I figured it would ride pretty rough.. How much rougher is the ride?

I wish I could afford to buy a reg cab/longbed and swap beds with my megacab. Then daily drive the reg/short.

Do you plan on lowering the rear or at least swapping springs?
