there going to be the same just longer drop and further back ...i think about 16"

 

[zukzilla4x4]

sorry guyes the body lift stays im not cuting ther fenders out to clear the tires.. tubes will be soon the frame first.the box will be going back on.and 2x4 tubeing will be what the frame is streached with.oh and by the way it only hasa 3"body lift...it is getting longer to get all the goodies back under the hood.

i didnt cut any gussets but i wanted it cut in front to give me more room under the body. with the extra room im recessing a tool box under the floor.if it was cut at the end i wouldnt be able to get my box in it.you know all that stuff that takes up room in the back and makes the back seat crouded,will all be under the floor now.sounds kinda strange but you got to bear with me and youll see....
