Been a while but i finally have the entire rear supension worked out. Now i just need custom springs made. Unfortunatley i cant do that until i the front suspension figured out, im gonna do something a lil defferant with the fron mounts. So withouth further ado...

I had to cut out the crossmember to make way for driveshaft clearance. Inside the frame is a piece of 3/8" angle for added support. its bolted through fron the bottom and through the sides.

Close up of the rear wheel...

The height it'll sit at...

The height it sits with stock springs...

I need 5 extra inches of lift as it sits now in the rear. (thats without the weight of a bed) But i got a cool thing im gonna do for the bed that i finally decided on. (TOP SECRET )
