Thanks Matt! I wonder what they are asking for that truck! Just curious.

BTW--if you line up the body feature line using stepside fenders, will you have tire-to-top-of-fender clearance problems if you lay frame?
I don't think so. It really depends on the tire size! Its gonna work

I'd be interested in that seat. He doesn't mention it in the ad so it might not be for sale.

Sorry my wife was on me about always being on my computer last night so I had to sneak in a quick post to answer your question. I had originally planed to run the mild rear dropmember and just run 1 inch forward arms up front with drop spindles...But... Then I thought if I gonna go down why not go to the ground! Truth be told I really like the advantages of the front drop member and the trucks just gonna be low and slow so I don't need the performance of the touring dropmember. And the front dropmember's are all the same price so... Extreme I went!

I'm trying to make this same decision. I currently have the Mild rear on order and was planning on ordering the Touring front but Nate told me i could switch to the extreme rear if I wanted to run the extreme front. I'm just concerned with the clearance of the big block, decisions decisions

Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)

Hey I understand. I guess the best advice I could give you is to ask yourself... "Will it be low enough?" And will I be satisfied with it knowing it could be lower? That's where I decided to go extreme.
