layed frame

hey are u guys isuzu frames laying hard..mine doesn't lay just wondering if when bagged if it's supposed to lay...thinking my frame hornes werent welded up high enough either when bd. the pinch doesn't lay evenly either..i know my stock pan is in the way and my front radius arms...but that being removed isn't going to bring the back down???any thoughts...redoing bullshit shop hack jobs

my isuzu lays frame hard. even from front to back. sounds like you got a prob

any thoughts?

yea my boy scott on here has one and it lays hard,its the one that just got repainted

Well is it the frame thats not layin out or is it the BD all screwed up and just not touching the ground all the way around?

Is your truck Zd?

If the frame isnt hitting the ground in the back i would start looking for whats keeping it up. Are the rear bags fully collapsed? If they arnt maby something is binding up the rear susspension, check to see if the drive line is hittin the bottom of the cab, or if the link system is all twisted up and/or bottomed out. If the bags are fully collapsed i guess its time to pull out the saw and redo the mounts to let it lay out.

Is the truck layin the cross member in the front? If not then I would check to see whats keeping it up, bags, ball joints, maby the control arms are hitting the frame?

If the frame is layin flat, but the BD is messed up, boy thats going to be a bit of cuttin to get it to all lay out flat again, if its layin uneven it sounds like you might have to redo the filler plates on the sides of the BD and maby re-cut and weld the firewall and back wall.

Not realy sure what you got going on without seeing it you know.


Anyways maby you could give us some more details as to how its not layin out... and pics deff help.

Good luck man let us know whats going on so we can be more helpfull.

my truck lays full frame but i also have 2" drop spendles in the front. i once heard that an isuzu wouldn't lay complete frame without em or bein Z'd.

i will get some pics up..to let u see the uneven lay. miles the bags are fully compressed, it's not z'd..no control arm/balljoint bindings it's on stock wheels,i will check the drive line..the front crossmember lays just not the back.this truck has been sitting for about 7 years..went through two hack shops and i think that it's just done completely wrong when people say z'd frame is it only and always z'd in the same general spot?

drive shaft might be hitting the floor of the cab

u dont know keele

Mine lays hard, you notch out for you're tie rods? make sure the arms aren't bottoming out on the coil hole too TX
