Most chops require some relief cuts to get the width for the posts to line up.
When I do chops I tack in the A pillars first and then go backwards from there. On cars it is easier as you either lay the rear window down or slide everything forward and extend the "Catwalk". A few car chops have used the filler piece in the roof if they want to keep the B pillars in the stock position.
On my truck chop I split the roof and tacked the A pillars then tacked in the rear of the cab to determine the width of my filler piece.
In some ways truck chops are harder as you don't have the length of the roof to get the flow right like you do with a car.
Keep on keeping on.......
