Thanks, it'll be a fun build, my first frame off rebuild,, I cut a coil and a half off, i did go with a 3" spindle,, the reason for the sway bar is i'm c-notching the rear and am adding a sway bar that will mount to the frame and will attach to the axle with swaybar end links like used up front,,, sorry i didn't take any pics of it sitting after the drop before I took everything apart,, I didn't join this site till after I removed the body, but with 245/75/16's the crossmember sat about 6 inches off the ground, 10 under the middle of the frame, the back sat about 3 to 4" higher since it isnt notched yet.
