I am about to purchase a 1985 C-10, already bagged, I'm almost positive the front frame is not Z'ed and obviously it doesn't lay body, so how do i Z the front frame, and what is the least required to get the cab on the flo! I thought i remembered reading a StreetTrucks a while back talking about just redoing the cab mounts on these trucks??? Appreciate the help!!!

I believe a 2.5-3" Z is what is required to lay a sqare body out on the pinch molding. If you want to lay body then you will have to move your body mounts and do a little work to the bed so it will all match up. There are several threads on this subject with some detailed info. You'll just have to search for them.
