Title: Anyone make an aftermarket frame for these trucks?
Post by: Chevalade on January 07, 2009, 11:41:20 pm

As it states.....or does anyone make a good back half for our trucks....like Art Morrison or anyone like that? Something a lil stiffer/stronger?

I'm sure if you gave Art Morrison a call, they'd be able to make one for you.  I'm also sure it wouldn't be cheap.

Street Strip, lowering, drag race...

Porterbuilt had a front and rear dropmember if you wanting something to lower the truck to the ground

Art Morisson will built a back half along with any frame/suspension company also.

They are NOT cheap by any means.
