yea the space inside is very nice, fits 6.
one of the main snags in the building of a truck like this is the body mounts and the frame (how it curves up for the bed).

Yeah, I saw that. Doesn't change the fact that "King Cab" was / is a Nissan trademark.

You might think so, but what about those with a Nissan King Cab that search / Google for help and find this thread? Are you going to help them here?

One would have to think that going to a site named "YOTAtech" would probably not have information for a nissan king cab.
Perhaps we would help them find a site relevant to their interests, but tech-wise we would most likely be unable to assist them.

Also after a quick set of searches through the beloved google, i've found nothing even pointing to yotatech. Even after putting Yotatech in the set of keywords, i didnt find anything pointing to this thread >.>

Now, !!!

Why would someone want to put a Nissan cab on a Toyota chassis?
(that's on topic, KingCab on .... no?)

Thread title changed by DeathCougar to XtraCab (the Toyota trademark) instead of KingCab (the Nissan trademark)
