    Looking to get ready to finish the a ch***is. I am looking for the truck to ride about 4-5 inches off the ground. I plan for a 4 inch channel over the ch***is. (2x4 ch***is) have 4 inch drop front i beam and plan on spring over on the rear, will be using mustang rear end. 4 link front and rear.

    Any suggestions how much z and kick the ch***is should have? Or is there a thread on how the best way to caluclate is?

    Thanks gang

    I'm building a 31 ford pickup using a stock a frame with 6" rear kick. I ended up mounting the rear leaf down under the frame. so I would have just dropped the back kickup 3" . I'm running a 5" drop Ibeam in the front, with four bar front and rears. Does that make sense?
