Just found this sweet truck thread!

I was search around for more information when i came across this truck. They built the chassis out of 2x4 tube steel and installed a IRS from an expedition. They also said that they narrowed the rear 5" so it could tuck the tires. What do you think about they way the did everything? I really like the setup and i am thinking about going in a similiar route. I wasn't going to go with the IRS but after seeing it done now i am thinking i might. I am not going to be runnin 22"s but i will be running 20"s so will i have to narrow it 5" also? I think it comes down to the over all tire height right? Any comments on this setup would be appreciated. I almost forgot here is the link to pics.

Re: Just found this sweet truck thread!

Also how would the IRS affect the bed of the truck? Would you have to raise the entire floor or just cut out some clearence? thanks

Re: Just found this sweet truck thread!

narrowing has nothing to do with tire height
