Half top to full top conversion.

For a nearly-DD rig, that's slowing getting more not-so-DD, would you guys do a full vert conversion.

I have all the parts, just weighing the bad things I've heard may come-to-life, and that some people haven't had problems that were all-that bad. I don't know what to do. The sub-structure is like-stock and in OK condition. The floors aren't stock, but are complete and rust-free. Rockers are new, and the sub floor up front was actually re-enforced with angle iron rather than the sheetmetal used stock. It obviously doesn't have these magic "boxes" under the floor like the full verts, which I've never had luck finding pics of or getting people to post up what they look like. I've just been told they are obvious, even though I've said it's obvious my full vert donor has been hacked to pieces and the boxes are long gone.

SWWCK5D?

I meant to hit yes instead of no.

Chop that sucker off.

Do it, but you are going to want to cage it.

I can snap pics of the rocker boxes. They are installed, but I have a nice chunk of passenger floor out, and may be able to get a decent shot. Will post tonite after work.

One thing I forgot to mention, is I DON'T want to cage it, at least, not yet... 1 due to money, and 2 due to the fact that I don't do anything enough to flip it - not yet. So I need some peeps to post up who didn't go straight to cage? I know the guy who made the write up later on had some problems with damaging the hard top because of the flex. Anyone else?

Why not pix of the boxes? I just need to see if they are of a special design, or if they are just another set of more robust run channels.

I'm already planning the same thing, just waiting saving money for the cage.
