Where to begin with all the questions??
What truck are they for? 1/2, 3/4 or 1 ton?
Long bed or short bed?
2 wheel drive or 4 wheel drive?
drum/drum or disc drum?
power brakes or manual?

All these need to be answered before a kit can be sized right.
I just received a kit in stainless form inline tube and they were spot on. Where did you order from?
I could take pics of our set up, new or old but we're working on a 1 ton dually with power 4 wheel drum so they're probably gonna look different than a 1/2 ton short bed

I think some went inside the frame and some went over the frame too.I'm not 100% sure on this ,but those with more knowledge about this will hopefully chime in.
