How much of a bridge in the rear frame and what set-up on the front do you use in order to set the body on the ground using 20" rims? Has anyone done it?

I think the proper way to do that would be to body drop it. Hacking the front frame/suspension up that high will ruin the geometry and you will have to cut a tunnel for the driveline thru the cab anyway to set things up properly.

Can you do it without bodydropping...yes, it will be easier in the long run and cause less problems if you channel the cab over the frame.
