The guy with the dodge in seattle has his dodge narrowed. (I think) The biggest thing for me is the windshield. Do you just cut out the center of it and put it in? plexi glass?

i am taking 18.5'' out of the center. i am looking to have the outside of the body in line with the inside of the LTB's. i should have my wheels next week sometime and then i can start building my 4-link for the rear, and see how much of the body i will have to cut.

Bigiron did it to his dodge. What you can do for the windshield is cut 18.5" out of the center and then run a split window in the front. run a strip of molding down the center to seal it.

So, it's an easy/cheep thing to have a glass shop cut out the center of a windshield?..... Hmmmm....

I think if you run flat glass it would be much much cheaper, but I don't know if you could rig that up some how.

Its tempered so I dont see any reason it wouldnt work? They do it in tractors, they leave about a 3/16 of an inch gap and put a bead of silicone between the two and it should work just fine!

actually its laminated, tmpered is usually done to the side glass so it shatters.
It can be done.
