I'd like to keep it as low as it is in the back without doing frame rails. however i am going to notch it anyways so I may or may not do rails.

I have been searching for weeks. I have come across a couple bolt on kits, however they bolt onto the outside of the frame rail. I have been looking at Competition Engineerings Universal kit. Now using this kit without doing rails can I mount them inside the frame? What length 4 link do you recomend? What length shocks and springs? What rate of springs as well?

Does anyone have any pictures of their 4 link kit with stock framerails? Also does anyone have pics of their 4 link kit with aftermarket rails?

I have looked at the back half kits as well. Are they worth it? How well do they fit or are they pretty universal?

Contact the parts manufacturer for their suggestions on shock length & spring rates as they prob been there & done it before & have a decent idea what does & doesn't work in a truck application. One of the best jobs done from this site IMHO....
