Received the Flat Out rear kit and got to work on the frame. The brackets and cross member are very well built, heavy gauge and great welds. The instructions are not great. The diagrams and measurements are basically what I used and the cross member pretty much self locates itself but still the instructions could use some updating. I chose to bolt this in using the supplied bolts in order to have some adjustability or move brackets if needed. I hope the rear ride height is not too high, I have about 3.5 inches of clearance between axle tube and frame. I thought about recessing the entire bracketry into the frame 1" but that would involve a lot of extra work. If I get the truck together and it sits too high then I'll pull the bed off and unbolt everything to rework it. Overall very happy so far, the front end has me a little nervous regarding clearance over the rack and pinion for the LS engine, time will tell!
