Truck is in the garage!

They go against the laws of physics.


You can buy pre-bent tube from Suicide Doors, its actually pretty cheap for what it is.

Also, why would you put the bag plates in before the truck is laid out? It could either hold the truck up off the ground, or be sacrificing the little lift you get out of over the axle setups and your ride quality will suffer due to the extra PSI needed to fill it.

Reverse 4 links are bad. This is an exaggeration but it shows why they are compared to a forward 4 link.

You can fit make a crossmember with a much larger notch than that without having to cut the bedfloor. We put this one in my buddys truck and it goes to just below the bedfloor just to give you an idea of how big you can go. But keep up the work man it looks like your making real good progress on this thing.

I just tacked in the upper bag mounts to see if they sit over the axle right.

any new pics??

huh?
why not just take measurements from symmetrical factory holes on the frame(such as a body mount or other mounting hole.) and center it, then take a diamond measurement to be sure?
i don't know how your cab's bodylines will help you...?

What is a diamond measurement? Sorry first timer here.

front driverside hole to passengerside axle, then same points on passenger front hole and driver side axle. make sure they are good points to measure off of. a corner or something symmetrical on both sides.

Right on. Thanks My concern was the side to side measurement and being centered side to side so that my rear tires would clear my two wheel drive sheet metal so that I wouldn't have to roll my fender lips on my bed and mess it up or crack the paint etc..

Im glad to see your taking the advice the guys on here are giving you, just keep asking questions and taking pics and you will be rolling in no time bro.

Well ya I'm trying to learn some stuff here! lol Gotta be open to all the advice.
