You'll have to notch the frame, make some blocks for the trailing arms at the rear end so the arms don't bind up on the underside of the frame, and you'll need to put the bags somewhere other than where the stock coils go, there just isn't room for the bag in that location if you want to lay. Oh, and you'll need to make either a longer or adjustable length panhard bar, if not the stock one at extreme drop will pull the rear end way over to the drivers side.

how big of a blocks do i have to make?

I think mine are 4", I made them out of aluminum, solid stock and drilled it, got new u-bolts made to make it all work.

good luck, it could work if you vuild the backhalf from the 2 link mount back, the link bars will hit the frame during travel if you dont rasie the entire frame rfom their pivot point.

With blocks it will lay, mine does and I just did a notch and blocks, moved the bags inboard of the frame on the trailing arms. Although I'm re-doing it with a 4-link now, but it worked for the time being and has lasted for about 6 years now.

currently running 225/55/17's. Soon to be 24's on the back and 22's on the front, this is why I'm doing a 4-link and probably a Porterbuilt Dropmember up front.
