I have a 42" LF Anthem and I would like to turn it into a bi-level. I have seen the Devotid DIY kit but the top deck is 40". Also, could I put an SST top deck on it. I am just not real familiar with the build of bi-levels so any information or advice should be helpful.

Will trucks like the new Devotid ones fit my flat deck?
Will the foam come off of my flat deck fairly easily?
Does the top deck need to be 42" as well or slightly smaller?
Uhh, those are just some questions I had, I have a good idea of what I need but I just don't want to spend money on something that doesn't work so answers to these simple questions might teach me something I may be wrong about.
Thanks, Justin

Haha, I would just consider it a waste of money if it didn't work. If I build one and I can ride it then that would be really neat because I will have put it together myself.

Order the top deck and trucks, Peel of the foam the anthem, Cut an inch off both ends, Sand and seal it, drill the holes when the trucks arrive, Mount the top deck and SHRED THE F U CKING SHIZ OUT OF IT.

DVSKATE, if you rip the foam off it becomes a flat deck the foam makes it a concave
