Rear Z
I am thinking of Z ing the rear of my 67 long bed. I'm wondering how much to Z it. What have you guys done? I will be running airbags in the front and rear.

Re: Rear Z
I think what you are referring to is a back half. in any case, the height you go for is based on how tall of a wheel you plan on running.

Re: Rear Z
thats not my truck, but, for the most part you just gotta figure out what your overall wheel hight is going to be so you know how high your axle will be. and then build the back half to be as low as possible and still clear the axle.

Re: Rear Z
I think the Z has to be quite high to clear the trailing arms. Check with porterbuilt about the trailing arms he has and you might not lose all your bed space
