Here is my Project Mayhem!!

This was a long and hard project, I had never attempted a BD before, so this was my first.
I have alot of pics of the body drop process, email me if you may want more.

The cutting begans, at the front mounts. Make sure and do alot of measurments before cutting, like the old saying go's "Measure Twice and cut once"

Bag on the Left is a Conitech 2500, it was a great bag, but with the body drop needed more lift as you can see from the pic i barely cleared, turning became impossible especially up driveways.
So installed the bigger Slam Specialites RS72s.

I had to cut alot more to make room for the bag on both sides
