Re: Setting up the rear end

Are you trying to bag the rear or just lower it?What year truck and what type of rear suspension you have now and are you using a bolt in kit or weld in universal 4 link?

Re: Setting up the rear end

Set your frame at ride hight. whatever you want it to be. If the truck is together, set the front where you want it and level it out and tack weld a piece of tubing to the ground on both sides of the frame.
You need to know your rear tire hight. Wheel size don't matter
Now build off of that.
Make sence?
