It sounds like you have a plan, I'm just saying you can install the box and figure out your floor height or floor bump over suspension parts after. Lots of guys dont worry about the floor until after they have a few miles on it, some dont put a floor in so they can showcase their handiwork.
Nice job on the front stub axles, quick too. Do you have a lathe or access to one?
My project is stalled due to other gotta do projects. Hope to get back on it soon.
