Re: Raising the bed floor 4 inches
I appologize for the pictures there kind of all over. The guy working on the bed didnt really take enough pictures to show you guys step by step so heres a few shots that kinda show you what we did.
First we unbolted the bed into all the seperate peices. Then we took the factory angle strip moved it up four inches and welded it back in so the bed bolted back together just like it did from the factory. |

I wish I were out back building something. This computer stuff is kinda boring.

Re: Raising the bed floor 4 inches
I may be asking a stupid question but what is the reason for raising it? Is it to gain more clearance under the wheel well for bigger tires?

Re: Raising the bed floor 4 inches
To achieve our desired ride height we modified the rear frame in a manner wich required raising the floor.
