his bed is mostly there. he is on here his name is coods. e-mail him with question and i will tell him to answer them. I know he left his floor pan where it goes. and put really low seats in so it fits about normal. his bed isn't modified except where he cut it out for the bags. he has c-notch's for his axle but i don't know for sure if his body drop needed those.

prob more fab than you want, but you can "Z" the lower control arms up front.

 

There's more write up in my NL320 thread, but here's a link to the PB album.

This is about the only pics I have of it stuffed. I had to reindex the torsion bars back up when I did the control arms. If I road on the bumpstops(cut to 1/2 now) with the new arm, a flat tire would have me grinding the crossmember hard. I think the rim will go about an inch above the scrub line.
