I was worried the cage would hit the fenders. Glad it clears ok.

The reason they say out of stock is probably because knight custom doesn't stock them either. Shapways is the 3D printer guys. The make them to order, that's why it's like 15 days to get. That's my guess.

Tried something late last night that may or may not be useful. At least you can learn from my mistakes. I'll be doing a lot more reinforcement to make this stronger and better looking.
I decided to narrow the rear boxy bed area by trimming key areas in the bed. Used sheets of pvc to make bracing and a lot more to go but see what y'all think.

Got her all buttoned up and took a maiden voyage. Still need to knock out some wire management but it's pretty much done. Doing this from my phone so not sure of the pic works.

It seems to me that these aren't even tall enough. When I use these, the body hits the front bumper mount. Any ideas?

I’ve always liked the looks of the FC body. But it rubbed bad in it’s stock form.
My FC has been through a few face lifts.

Yes. Thanks. I've used some extended post so far. I'll have another look at it tonight.
