Re: "Tuff man bars" and anti-roll pics
It could be done without hacking the bed floor if you don't go real low. I am using shorter qa1's on my son's truck and will keep a fake wood floor in tact. I saw a 64-66 model with the shocks mounted in front of the axle that didn't stick up too high. You could always just do a cover over the center section like the lowrider guys.

Does anyone have a anti-roll and coil-overs under a stock bed? My truck is lowered and I don't want to cut the bed up. Pics please

How narrow will your rearend housing and frame rails be?

They are stock both stock

Re: "Tuff man bars" and anti-roll pics
I am doing a coilover with a anti roll bar , depending on how low the truck will determine the bed floor. I am using a 19" Lamb[Koni] shock in front of the rearend housing. My floor will be cut. I will use a Rick Jones anti roll set up, and a wish bone to center the housing. I have longer shocks and will have the upper mounts higher in the truck. If I had to keep the bed floor in I think I could it I think, there is room between the frame and the bottom side of the bed. I have to cut the bed for tubs , and the roll bar connects to the frame in the rear anyway so I dont care about the floor. I dont have pics because I have to wait to get started on the chassis till December or January.

keep me in mind I plan on doing something similar and was looking for some help before I took on the challenge. Thinking now to just let a chassis man handle it.

Here's a couple pics of my front mount coil-over setup, but no anti roll. I.m curious about the anti roll setup and how it works.

Re: "Tuff man bars" and anti-roll pics
That's exactly correct. If you were running a narrowed frame/rearend housing application, this is what I was going to recommend since this is in the racing forum. I run this Jerry Bickel unit in my Super Gas car. It is a bit bulky and requires some vertical space between the frame rails and the reared housing, but it is infinitely adjustable.

Re: "Tuff man bars" and anti-roll pics
I was trying to tie the anti-roll and shock mount in together because I don't have much space. I am not even sure that it can be done?

anti-roll on each side. etc.... make a extension from the frame to the ani-roll to make a shock mount |
Re: "Tuff man bars" and anti-roll pics
IIRC, the tubing for the torsion bar housing comes in a 40" length to provide enough length for most applications. But, for a stock frame application, I couldn't see around using a through-frame tube for the torsion bar housing since there isn't enough frame kick up. I ended up also leveraging it as a replacement crossmember. For an upper shock mount, you will have to use a littler thicker wall tubing, but can be done. TCI (Total Cost Involved) now offers their '28-'31 Ford chassis with this type of through-frame torsion bar set up.

Thanks for the info. I am going to draw something up tonight and I'll post it up to see what you all think.

Re: "Tuff man bars" and anti-roll pics
Man these sexy trailing arms are killin me. I don't know if I should buy some or build some. Vin 63's race car anti roll looks like mine from S&W.

Re: "Tuff man bars" and anti-roll pics
I was wrong My parachute mount came from S&W. Here is where my anti roll came from.
