speeddemon0308 Posted January 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2011 yeah im completly aware of that. im thinkin a 5/5 or a 5/6 drop, once the batts are in the bed and my 4 wheeler it would be really pushing it.. i dont mind if i need to roll the fenders a littlebit tho.

AR1684 Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 you could always do a 5/5 5/6 drop with a helper in there if you plan on actually using your truck rather than just drivin it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

speeddemon0308 Posted January 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 well the biggest thing that will be going in the back will be my 4 wheeler.. Polaris predator. or it will be on a trailer. but we plan on putting out batts ( G31's ) in the front of the bed and putting them the long way ( the long side if the back goes front to rear with the truck ) and putting it the width of the bed and mabey 2 rows high.

n8ball2013 Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 you're going to be in front of the rear axle so most of the weight will be carried on the frame for the batteries. you wont have rear end sag like that.
