67 laying rocker question

Does anyone know if a 67 short bed will lay rocker without Z cutting the front end of the frame,the front tires will be 275/30/20 and rear 275/40/20
I just finished baggin an 86 and HATE IT!with the same tires the nose stuck up 2" higher than the rear.
THANKS FOR YOUR TIME

i don't believe it would. you would have to either z the frame or section the crossmember. i'd say just z the frame.

Re: 67 laying rocker question

Be ready to cut on the inside lips of the fender.I know Tim Christians son has his bagged but the fender lips(where the hood sits on the inside) lay on top of the tire before the frame lays out.

Dropmember and a 4 link with step notch. You will have to do some clearance work to get it to lay, but it's possible.
