[99 to Life]

steve, thanks man. Lots of variables here. What I'm doing on the bagged truck is not laying frame. Some pros and cons to doing it that way. 1. No wheel tubs in bed and 2. no duhumping lower control arms. Cons, the lower the body is the more tunneling you'll have, the less radiator height you might have. My running board brackets sit below the frame because the fenders sit lower than frame. Overall I'm pretty close to cab heights. I'll have to remeasure my 51' I always thought it was 4" off frame with bushing. My 49' will be 3.5" off frame with bushing.

I wouldn't worry about laying frame with a truck, really no point unless you want to maybe achieve no trans tunnel your still prolly going to have. These trucks are already channeled over the frame if you think about it.

The only thing I'm personally not sure of is how much pressure and what the ride will be like at my desired ride height. If the body was mounted higher, you'd have more room to play with your bags if you need to move em up or down. feel free to ask any more questions. this is my first bagged one and def not my last, there's always more than one way to skin a cat.
