Who wide are those ralleys? And is your box going to sit on the crossmember? Or are you going to have to cut it out?

The wheels are 14" wide. Yeah i decided to run the shock crossmember on top of the frame to be able to raise my lower shock mounts off the ground. The body is gonna have a 6 to 8 inch wide tub and i'll run a smaller tunnel from tub to tub to make clearence for the crossmember and the panhard bar.

That's going to look great with those wheels. Is your truck going to have a Pro Street set up? Where in MD are you? I'm a few miles north of Annapolis.
