I dont think it is physically possible to lay doors without a body drop. There is only so much room.

FWIW,
My new PST Cab/Body bushings ARE as thick as Hockey Pucks. Why don't you just Z the frame, instead of doing a Xmember drop? IIRC, there's someone on here that has a 73-77 C10, and bagged it and he was laying rocker, and all he did was take out his mount bushings, and replace them with .25" thick pieces of polyurethane. |

If you raise the crossmember more than 1.5" it requires a lot more work to get everything correct.... |

I can't remember the exact combo Correy used here, but I'm pretty sure it was just a Z'd frame...

Yeah, that Camaro is still in my garage, but it's not as nice as his truck. I sold it a few years ago and it sat in storage for a lot of years. All the chrome was rusted, and the interior was destroyed.... This is what it looked like then- |

You wont be able to do it by changing the body mounts, trust me.
