I think it is just a customer of his with a regular cab or ext. cab 1500 that asked what would be the best arms to run....

i have an 03 laying frame on 22's as my daily. i used mcgaughys spindles, art arms, slam re7's, tubd firewall and installed a hydrotech brake booster. i have a small tire on mine. and i get alot of neg. chamber. id suggest moving the upper control arm to the top of the frame. will make it look alot better and reduce neg chamber when layed out, and positive chamber at full lift. hope this helps.

so you have done this and everything works ok? I have pulled that of with the 97-98 F150, but i don't think it would work well on the chevys.

your asking if moving the control arms up works right? i have not yet done it to mine. i will when i get 24's to put on it. extensive did matt spense's dually like that. and i think you can have them make you the control arm mounts for the top of the frame. hope that helps a little.

yea they built the arms sence it has no torsoin anymore and it has bag mounts on lower control arm. when i called and talked to them they said the arts would be fine moved up. they have to be moved up becuse when the lower arm is horizontal the upper arm is nearly at a 45 degree angle already, sense the upper control arm is mounted in the middle of the frame rail. from what i understood from bill when we hung out at sema was the mount is made the same exact way as the stock, sticks out over the top the same. and makes it so when its layed out both arms are at the same angle. so it just shows a little of negative chamber and positive chamber, if any at all.
