Well I don't exactly know, I guess a drop member I mean right now i have the stock front member in and it is still laying body so am I still able to use a drop member? And I will be using Michigan metal works front 3/4 ton control arms and drop spindles, soo I don't wanna get to low haha. I just want to know my options. On my 65 ford shortbed I used a Scott's hotrods custom bagged front crossmember and then built my frame to match my front crossmember.

PLEASE HELP!

so today i talked to the guy at accuair suspension, extremly nice and helpful guy by the name of jesse, he helped me with all the information i needed and all the possible options. I looked into buying the setup that they show in their street trucks spread, it is the 5 gal aluminum tank, 2 new viair comps and all new valves, with their eXo mount kit, gives me a place to mount both compressors and the valves and the tank to one piece, all the runs 1300.

i also priced out rims and tires, and to get rims from american force 24" rims with adapters and tires is 8 grand, so thats a little spendy, that is for 6 rims already milled and polished.

As promised earlier here is my frame rail

this is all that was cut out to make room for the bag i assume, the fab guy at work said not to do all that crazy stuff with the front end and we will just take some 1/8" plate and replate it up i guess around the new bag, and i dont have front or rear shock mounts either haha.

so from the bed side to the outside of the fender is 13", and the length of the front of the fender is 26" to the wheel well opening and the rear is 22" to the wheel well opening.


I have a question, does anyone know how much wider semi wheels are actually the regular wheels? because right now both tires on one side of my dually run 19" wide and since i dont have my wheels on my truck im kinda worried i didnt stretch them enough hahahah :O

Just talked to a guy at 323dually by the name of benny super helpful as well, i was looking into getting 6 24" Cali style wheels, and adapters and lug nut covers with center caps and tires for right around 5500 shipped to my door free shipping.
