I bolted the floor supports right to the frame then tack welded a couple rods to hold it in place
Painted the inside with por-15 DTM paint
I measured from the rear riser (bumper) 51" and 67 1/2" to the center of the holes on the frame. Then since the tub is even with the riser i just transferred those measurements
In my next life im going to put one of these tubs together with panel adhesive, just because

The number of hours you have into this project must be staggering.

looking great - I give you all kinds of credit - not something most of us could do even if we had the where-with-all and time. Enjoying the progress pics!!

I decided on an aftermarket tool box, fitment wasn't too bad
I was going to pre paint inside the tool box area but remembered I had a quart of raptor bed liner left from the last project, so I taped off the flange areas for welding and sprayed that on. Not factory but I figured with the jack and some chains bouncing around in there it would hold up better.
