    Why would you need to channel the body to go low? You could have your frame s****ing and all just by Zeeing the ch***is and cutting chunks out for the axles to clear.

    To maintain any kind of a descent ride quality out of the thing you will need around 3" of compression stroke and 1-2" of extension stroke from ride height.

    Have a browse through the forum, and find build-up threads. There's a few about, many showing how to Zee a frame.

    Look in the tech section too, as there are frames built in there.
