Easy, I doubt is a good word. I don't think any body drop will be easy, period. There's a lot of work involved in either way you choose. One just requires more work than the other.

I plan on doing a traditional. Only be going down 2" so I won't loose much head room. Going to lay rocker, and fold the pinch. I'm 6'2" or around there, and I should be fine. I'm just putting nicer buckets, and dropping them a little. Sitting in the stock buckets, I'm about 4" from the roof. So, hopefully I'l only loose 1-2" of that room.

And, i found these pictures really helpful, so maybe they'll help someone else.

i did mine 3" traditional and a new frame. mines done to the doors. if your consurned of head clearance, ive got 4runner seats in mine with the sliders cut off and bolted directly to the floor and ive got plenty of room. im 5'9" and ive got about 6" of head room. and for the fact of a stockfloor just depends on how you run your frameing. everyone does it different. ill try to post up pics of mine soon
