Bubba all you had to do to get your bridge height is measure the height of the bed brace. They sit on the frame rail and are tack welded to the bed floor 🤣 Also, you could’ve definitely went higher on your notch so that your axle had more clearance. Reklez’s under bed step notch is 2” between the top of the notch and the top of the bridge. Another thing, you could easily use a Tahoe fuel tank. They mount behind the axle where the original tire carrier goes.
@Finding_Our_Way6 ай бұрын
Good point, threw me off having different height to the mounts front vs rear. And this was once a long box frame i shortened. Easier for me to visualize it with a string, exspecially doing this extensive frame modification. Rather not mess it up. If i built another one, im certain i would do it a lot faster and cleaner. ✌️

Didnt think of a tahoe fuel tank, but i did toss the idea of a fuel cell at the rear. Decided against it, as i dont want to change the fuel door. My diff is pretty close to the bed, havent tried to get a tape measurer in there yet, but not much lower it could go. And im trying to build this while fabricating all the metal myself vs buying kits. I enjoy the learning curve. I didnt study reckless ones or anyones. Making this up as i go along 😅
