You think its a promotion?
I did my own conversion and there are a lot more factors than just cutting and welding.
The exhaust, brake lines, drive line, and ebrake cable all need to be shortened, new holes for rear bumper mount, cab mounts moved etc.etc.. I think if the bed shortening is included... $1800 is a fair price. But after looking at the craigslist post, I cant say I would venture to that guy. I could be wrong, but it seems like something some guy does out of his home shop, note the frame didnt even get cleaned/sand blasted. The bed looks nice, but how many shops will warranty a cut and welded frame? When I was thinking about shortening mine, I called around to get a quote and wss told by most shops that they wouldn't do it for liability reasons. Only 2 shops told me they would do it and one of them is a close friend.
