The rear body mounts sag a little giving you that "I didnt make my frame the lowest part of the truck" look when the bed looked crooked laid out.

i just measured my body drop it is 2 3/4" so if i raise my engine about 1/2" and shave a little on my cross member i think i will be in the clear. russd what needs to be done to lay completely flat?

yep that should do it. Most people just drag off a 1/2 inch and its flat. The danger there though is when you drag from then on, you can drag through the LCA mounts.

I just z'd my frame a 1/2 inch when I sfbd'd. I hate that ghetto front to back lean. I had a bodydropped toyota way back when that had that and it was craptacular.

cool now i know what needs to be done now i the next issue is going to modify my hood to look good, i am going to have to make a cowl that is 4" or more!
