No tunneling of the cab. I like that idea.

How tall is the notch? Set up to lay on a 30" tire like the 73-87?

Dang it now I HAVE to upgrade to 22's . I figure my 20's are barely 27" tire diameter.
Making arrangements to have body pulled off this by the end of this weekend so I should be ready slighty before you are. Then the stalking of the man in brown can begin

This kit will be a UPS shipped item... just like the front. As mentioned, I designed it in pieces that will meet the packaging and weight specs... who wants to pay truck freight?

Also, I have gained enough experience with UPS to understand that they do not take it easy on packages... especially the heavy ones! After dealing with torn box issues in the beginning, I have since switched to double boxing all components (two double walled boxes, with hardware and other pieces boxed inside) ... a little more spendy for me with the custom sized boxes, but I haven't had a "lost" component since.

Re: Dropmember Rear 63-72 Spy Pic

OK guys... my OCD kicked in over the past week, and I ended up modifying the notch in order to make installation MUCH easier. The new notch design is a three piece... the main notch will slide over the rails, it will get bolted in place, the bridge then bolts in place, then the frame section gets cut-out, and finally the inner bridge cap/supports get bolted on. This thing is a beast...
