heck yes it does, if someone else sees this how easy was the heat/ac to put back in?

yes,you have to cut out all the way to the wiring harness block to clear 22s.

Chris I put the heat/ac back in the one i doored on 22's a few years ago. I think i have some pics. I'll look around and email them to mike if i do.

The firewall has to be tubbed just to lay frame on 22's

If you move the cab back about an inch while you're body dropping it, you won't have to tub it as much.

Moving the cab back also closes up the gap inbetween the cab and the bed. Looks a hell of a lot better. It also centers the wheel better in the fender.

I'm not sure if you do, mine is in the garage with the whole front takin apart and it is on 20's right now and i have 2x4's under the tires (yes I know a 2x4 is 1.5x3.5 but I still have space left), like previously mentioned though the only thing that got in the way was the wiring harness. I will be trying it out with some 30 series tires on 22's though.

the thing with the 20 is that it wont have the diameter of the 22, so you wont know quite how far into the firewall to go....... unless you are runnin like a 40 series on those 20s....
