I'm run'n Hooker Comp long tubes and bottom the K without the headers hitting so you shouldn't have any issues there.

Does your truck have duels on it now ?

On the notch, I prefer a grinder with chop/cut-off blades. They make a nicer cleaner cut and less chance of burning your truck down with a torch.....

Spindles shouldn't throw your alignment out much to worry about, but adding springs will require re-alignment.

Stock exhaust right now, this truck is all original....and thanks for the advice on the notch...

8'' steel wheels.

DRONING?
