An obs truck can get a body drop for about a third of that, and the amount of labor is a lot less. Someone who knows what they are doing would still take about two months, b/c of all the extra crossbars, wiring, frame diffences and cab shape. Trust me from experience. I have a friend who performed a stock floor on his 99 and he almost sold it for scrap b/c of the fustration. If i were you, i would leave it to professionals or just stick w/ bags. Or, buy an obs project truck. Just my opinion. Peace out

id like to pick up a salvaged nbs and see what I can do with it But ive heard obs chevys are the best for sfbds
