Edited: 7/28/2009 1:21:50 AM by DragaDodgethis is what i know.......... option 1.) zing the frame at least 1.75" to lay flat frame option 2.) zing the frame 3.5" and cutting the bottom of the frame off underneath the cab to lay pinch option 3.) using a dropmember from SD or porter to lay frame option 4.) using a dropmember from SD or porter and zing the frame 1.5" or more and cutting off the bottom of the frame to lay pinch option 5.) adding the appropriate amount to any of the above options to lay more than frame or pinch

only z'ing it 1.75 inches also allows you to keep your stock floor inside the cab and stock steering (you have to notch the upper control arm a tad) but you have to recess the cups in the lower control arms to do this.

In order for the entire frame to lay,  the part thats stopping the front is the lower control arms. Thats for the C10's and I'm not sure for the dually. So either Z or dropmember.
