i know i have to get i beams. i know i need lowering springs... i know i need axle flip(done), blocks, ubolts, c-notch, bed notch, and a shackle flip.
my truck is on 14s with stock size tires (i cant remember the exact size) so i know that will help it get lower.
However, will i need to do any more frame notching?
I heard about needing a transmission crossmember but idk if thats true.
ive also seen cab notches.
i want like 9" in the rear and 7" or 8" in front
no i dont want bags.
static drop.
any help is appreciated. it sucks cuz i know all about vdubs but not minitrucks.
also motor lifts? idk how that works but i would have to lift the trasmission along with it and idk how that would affect the steering equipment etc.
oh and i dont care about camber. where i come from camber is sick. the more the better. well not necessarily but you know what i mean.
