I'm interested in how you mounted your nolimit wide ride, I'm getting ready to install one and was wondering if it would be possible to mount it one inch higher in the frame rails. Basically wondering if it would be possible to do this which would lower my truck one inch more, if this makes any sense. I see the picture of your truck, is that the ride height of your truck?

Below are a few pictures that may help. The IFS is very adjustable and you can use coilovers or bags. It has an adjustment point and I could lower the ride height about 3/4" more by moving the coilover mount point on the lower control arm. I do not see any reason why you could not notch the frame rail and get it lower if desired. I could not due to the height of the mod motor. I have minimal clearance at the oil pan and about a 1/4 inch at the hood.

Funk I think before I tried to raise the crossmember and all the mounts in the chassis I would mount it up to the chassis the way it was designed and then just Z the chassis to get my extra inch or two lower . Alot less work than trying to reengineer all the mounts and tabs that come with the crossmember .
