Any thoughts?

then your front end suspension, tranny, and engine would hang too low, as well as needing a bigger notch out back to lay frame. You could Z the frame up front if you really wanted, as well as put a 3" larger notch out back. Thats how the 73-87's are done, but their frames only hang down 1" past the rocker, not 3" like the 88-98's
