nl320what Posted May 26, 2015 Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 Your plans sound pretty good, c-notch requires some engineering and knowledge. Remember, it affects your shock mounts and normally have to remove all the smaller leafs in the springs or go with a 4-link to get that low. I see what your doing, keeping the flatbed low to make loading easier. Make the flatbed as big as possible for more room, room for a quad and a tool box/gas can area. Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted May 26, 2015 Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 Don't remove springs. Find a way around this. Two reasons... It's the springs that give lateral stability. Remove them, and the remaining ones can allow the axle to shift sideways shredding tire and fenders. A panhard bar would be advisable. Less springs are softer and the truck will travel farther on bumps and dips. Never a good idea on a vehicle that's been lowered closer to the pavement. Have the arch removed from the springs and add a leaf to firm them even more. Quote Link to comment

hobospyder Posted May 26, 2015 Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 You've gone up and down Mike, I think the last plan in the thread was go down and buy another to 4x4. Maybe update with current plans so people don't get confused? Quote Link to comment
