if you are building a whole new frame, then just build the frontend to lay on 22s.

How much for upper and lower control arms and how long would i have to wait,and a custom crossmember so it can lay harder then using the stock crossmember.

Isn't the front of your truck set up for a 27 1/2" tall tire already? Didn't a shop on the net post how they did your front end step by step? Cause if it's the same truck, a 255/30/22" tire is 28" even. You should be able to squeeze a 1/4" from somewhere on those arms.

No mine is set up for 26"tall tire.I have 235/35/20" tire right now and it rubs against the inner fender when it lays out.Do you remember what shop on the net posted the front end step by step.

ah, ok, nm then, i was thinking of a different truck. if your taking it to scrapen customs for a full frame, i'm sure they'll just make a mustang II work for what you need.
