I have been interested in a stepside for my luv, and since i cant really find any and like building stuff how hard would it be to take my bed and turn it into a step-side? I would of coarse buy/build some fenders most likely out of fiberglass if i build em, but would it be about as easy to just get a step-side from another truck and modify it to fit on my luv???

thanks
-Dustin

Someone had a link to where someone took a full size stepside bed and narrowed it. Use the search or someone may know.''
