so water flows straight into the sill then? i know what id be doing

[CLM]

It does, and right out of the bottom of the vents in the sills ... so no oversills! Oversills are VERY bad on a pup lol! Make sure your drainage is up to par and make sure everything is painted in a nice good layer of a decent rust protecting paint like POR15 and you should be fine.

Where in Canada are you from? I'm West Coast (Vancouver/Lower Mainland area)
What kind of shipping costs did it take to bring your kit into Canada?

[Aceslow]

I am in Alberta. $530CAD shipping from Pro-Motive and then customs dinged me with another $500CAD for import tax.

Thats about what I figured. Sometimes you never know what Customs is going to decide to charge. Thanks.

No problem. Hopefully I can get back to the shop and get the body work done my truck. Front end and rear wheel wells still need to be done. This is taking too long. Ill have it ready for first snowfalll...

Nothing new with the body, but my wheels and brakes showed up. Swapped from a 13 inch tire down to a 10 inch. Those Paddy Hopkirk brakes would not fit so I needed to order different ones. KAD makes some nice stuff I tell you.. Hopefully get some work done on the body while I'm on my holidays.
