I built one that we cut up the front arms and z'd the fame. It works pretty good if you cut the lower buckets out and notch the upper contol arm to go arond the steering arms. We just got in a set of Air Ride Tech. arms and the still hit the steering. I am going to put in some jionts to go around the new arms. Those arms where like $800.

so you need uppers for ball joint angle. and the lowers need to be cut/sectioned to not hit the frame right?
