Nice. How does it look like it's going to turn down low? How close are the tie rods from that frame rail? Any notching their?

I'm also assuming to help with the camber, you moved that mounting point of the upper control arm up out and away from the frame as opposed to where they're factory mounted correct?

You got it up 2in and out 2 1/2 in and there was no no need to notch the frame rail for the tie rods there is lots of room . and for turning I would be good going down the freeway but with my oil pan 6 mm from the ground I wouldn't be cruzing that low lol I would be up 3-4 inches and up that high it wouldn't be a problem

So what's your plan here? You going to be dropping down ass down here in the near future or is it going to keep the stance for towing a rig?

the rear will be getting the same treatment and a parallel 4 link and it will still be a tow rig

Do the second generation Dodges use a gear box or rack and pinion type set up? I keep looking at how I am going to accomplish this with mine but the steering box seems like it's really going to give me fits trying to dump her.

Think it would be a good idea to re-gusset your front bag brackets more to the edge of the bag plate. My buddy bagged his mazda and did the gussets the same against my advice. Summers end his bag brackets bent. And that was a 4 cyl mini truck.
Other than that truck is looking good!

your build is looking really good. the only suggestion i have, especially since you will be towing with it, box in your frame around your notch.. the way it is set up now will be a failure point over time. i love Dodge trucks layed out... and yours is looking very good.
