Had no idea I would have to cut off the back half of the frame.  |
Using OEM parts makes a lot of sense. I never have understood swapping out a trailing arm set-up to a 4 link set-up for a street driven truck. Trailing arms are a proven design, but going independent, like you are, should make for a nicer ride and better handling.
Bet you're really looking forward to that first drive.
