Re: suicide doors?

Do it exactly like that link. Drill up from the bottom- there should be enough room.

Re: suicide doors?

i think you might want to take a look at somebody's older chevy truck that has been bagged before you start to do any drilling or cutting, you dont want to drill something an eight of an inch from the spot that it needs to be. or just find sombody that has done a few air ride systems to help you out. most guys will help you out for a 12 pack, and the pleasure of spreading the knolage. good luck.
