ext cab hardody bdrop ?s

body dropping this truck past the pinch to lay the rocker flat, the back of the cab measured out at a 3 inch bdrop (have it on tubing across frame so it dropped to sit even with frame). granted the front needs a little more trimming to get it to fall all they way down, but it does not appear that in the front it is going to go 3 full inches like the back is. is this how the trucks are? the frame and rockers are pretty dead on but was wondering why the measurments dont look like they may not add up. thanks

you only need 2.75" to lay rockers on hardbody's with the pinch bent up...one of the main things that will slow ya down is in the cab... close to the firewall on the tranny tunnel, top part of the tranny will with the tunnel, you only need to trim the metal some to get it out of the way...you will need to move your radius bars too... either over and up , or build some new ones and reverse them...other then that, besides the little brake lines and etc you shouldnt have no problems...hope that helped some!!

heres a hardbody we're currently working on, maybe help out some on pics..?

this what im talking about on the tranny tunnel..

heres other pics for reference.... nothing we're doing is law... just giving ya some help..
