I haven't been able to air it out all the way with the bed on yet. In the previous pictures the frames original bumpstops in the rear are sitting on the rearend. I have now removed those and notched the fram so it sits quite lower. I still don't think the truck will sit level when airred out. I have a strong feeling that I am going to run into problems with rear tires, clearance was a little tight. I will see what i can do to make them fit and if I can't then I will just have to figure something else out.
