That is looking so good. That frame is like a work of art! My truck is a C20 as well and I want to lower it. What size wheels and tires are you running?

Re: Project Rise 'N Shine

Frame looks great & different - almost too nice to cover up with body panels - well done.

A good crossthread is better than Loctite any day.

Update pic. Chassis is done! Picked up a new cab last weekend, the original needed too much work. Hopefully get started on bodywork soon.

Re: Project Rise 'N Shine

I swapped the front shocks for ones that are approx 1" shorter than the ones that came with the dropmember. Now the frame is about 1 3/4" off the ground below the front cab mount.
