Re: 51 chevy 3100 5 window build

I set my front mounts at about a half inch above the frame and with the stock s10 suspension (not bagged) and no blocks, my running boards are about 4 inches off the ground. The frame is closer to 11 or 12 and I've got a pretty good sized tunnel! I also used the 19 x 22 radiator but had to angle it to clear the steering box. Also, another note is that setting the cab this low will make your engine sit pretty high in the engine compartment, shallower bed etc. I love mine and I wouldn't change it but if I were to bag one I would set it much higher.
