My thinking is as such.
1.Once the cab is lowered about 8 inches the front and rear suspension have not been altered in any way. "They don't know".
2. Raising the bed floor is simple compared to widening a bed and installing a new metal bed floor, so "no biggie".
3. The short section of frame in the front that the core support sits on will also undergo a similar addition of donor frame. Once welded together and plated, then the old section can be removed.
4. I know that the steering currently installed will need to be modified. I am planning to install a rack and pinion setup and toying with the idea of an "electric power steering" setup off like a 2010 Toyota Corolla. Check it out on You Tube. Really slick if you are wanting to run a rack and pinion.
Anyhow, that's where my mind has travelled. Let me know what you think?
