when did you get that body drop....my rear parts are the same except for the frame support, mine is just the two extensions and and crossmember that bolts to the side of bracket...your has a piece welded to the body drop and the support attached to it, wonder if I have an outdated version which the one I have makes if very difficult to attach the rear bumper brackets and the support. So it looks like I may need to replace the old with the new...grrrrrrrrr

I got the body drop 2 or 3 months ago. Nate turned out pretty quick.

We made an update to the rear crossmember on the body drop several months back. After getting some feedback and installing a few ourselves, we found this to be a better way... so I changed it. "Porterbuilt Evolution". :lol:

Kinda like when I bought a new truck... and the next year they made a new one with some extra features and improvements! grrrrrrr :)

Re: porterbuilt bandwagen
 
gotcha, so I definetly have the old version of the rear, defineltly need to change to the edition you have as it sets the support as far back as possible and still allows no interuption for bumper assembly. thank you for your quick reply.

It's funny you say that. I was staring at it yesterday, daydreaming about cruising it around town!

I see you shaved and moved the gas tank. Where do you plan to have the gas filler tube? Nice build by the way!
