Bruce,
   SInce the full setup isn't what you're looking for...please go to
http://www.chevytrucks.org/wayne/48trucks.html
Grant Parsons has a shorter setup with the side board.
Go to the list members page and lo and behold---our leader, Miq's 57
has a shorter setup as well. Here's the URL

THen travel down to Randy Boersig's 47-shorter setup as well.
Scott Muentnich-53, short but a little different..
