This truck had an axle flip as you can tell by the stoppers.
Notches all welded up and ready for mock up.
That's a 4X4 square tube under the notch. That's how high the bottom of the notch will be from the top of the frame.
67dually....Yeah the front was dropped by cutting the coils and smaller tires. And yeah the owner Mark Perez is keeping the steel wheels. I think they look good on his truck.
fbomb100...yeah I still have the frame. Same price. I needed all my jacks and jack stands so I put the frame on ground.
I really wish that frame had been available just one month earlier because when you listed it for sale, we had just done a full swap and build on to another shortbed frame for CNM67's truck. We had used up our welcome at the place we did the swap and had no where else to swap it again, nor did we have the desire to take the entire truck apart that we had just put back together. Too bad too because that frame and CV swap is a steal.

I hear you man. I have limited space to do the work and my girl isn't to happy about how the front yard looks right now
Here I am backing up the truck to where my welder is hooked up to 230 for final welding of some brackets. First time scraping rear leaf hangers click on the image to see the video
I had to remove the stock carrier bearing mount and replace it with a flat plate because the U joints where binding when the suspension is dropped all the way down. A new bearing will replace that one.
The U bolts are to short so I had to cut the link bar to move the plate about 1" in
