Anyone install a front roll pan?
Installing a front roll pan on my 68 and finding my frame is in the way. I take it I have to cut the frame rails back a couple inches and box them back in. Any help is appreciated.

just cut them back no need for boxing they are not under any type of load or stress/ you might just take the cutoff pieces and tackweld them in the frame rails in case at some later date you wish to return it to stock

I hate the look of front pans on these trucks but to each his own. If you do do it then I think the above idea is a great one. We always set these part in a place we will not loose them but we can never find them again ether ![]() Kevin LFD Inc. |

So true. My garage is only about 26x30 and there are at least eight truck parts in there that I can't find that I want to find!
