Hey, just a question about your suicide doors.  How much of a gap between door and body is there when it's open a full 90 degrees?  I'm looking at suiciding mine and I'm wondering how close I can have my hinges to the inside of the door/cab while still avoiding hitting anything.

DV8,

That is an awesome truck!  I am from Carthage.  I used to hang out with Shay and Brandon.  I will have to try and get back down there for a show.  I am currently stationed in Virginia.  I will be keeping an eye on your build to see how it turns out.
