    Negative. A back halved truck removes the bed in favor or a full caged rear. What I am not sure of is if its considered back halving if you keep the frame.

    Back having chops the frame behind the cab as you are literally building a new "back half" to the truck. keeping the frame is just a bedcage regardless of if there is a bed or not (IMHO)

    :D
    Needs to get into DTF for a front bumper ASAP.
    Jordan was doing this rubbing compound for a while and its helped a ton. Going to do a Clay bar on the whole thing, and an 04 Conversion up front hopefully sometime soon. Also have to find a decent upholster for the seats
