Re: Slosh Tubz new company project "Square Peg" frame laying 1987 GMC Jimmy

The reason I ask is that when I placed my order me told me the exact number - 14, a month before it shipped. This was when he was calculating shipping. I liked that because it shows he knows how it's going to be packed, and he's not pulling some number out of thin air to cover shipping.

I guess I missed the part that you wanted to lay pinch. I thought you were building this so it wouldn't drag body since your wife was the intended user.

I don't remember exactly how close my pinch would be aired out, but it was very little clearance. I planned a nice paint job, and had no desire to risk it in the event of an air system failure. I had planned to run .50 removable drag blocks on the bottom of the frame to save it from damage.

Re: Slosh Tubz new company project "Square Peg" frame laying 1987 GMC Jimmy

i wonder if you could lower the bodymounts to get that last 3/4 inch , i think the bodymounts alone should do the trick

Yes i want it to lay pinch at shows but i also plan on putting in easily removable bump stops to run when she is driving it .
