Just a couple of questions for the group. Im looking at F550 and Ram5500 body builder. They show a measurement of "top of wheel @ jounce." The height of the tire above frame rail on Dodge (8.6") and the difference of tire height on the Ford (5.5"). Am I correct in assuming this a relatively good indicator of flame flex?? If so, since the 5500 shows the tire approx at frame height (assuming stock size), the Dodge has quit a bit more flex or twist.
Am I getting this right?? Im curious to see how high a sub fame with 3 pt mount will need to be above the frame rails and how much fender cut outs would be need. This all hypothetical at this point since I currently have neither. Just comparing the 2 trucks (only on this aspect).
Can anyone ER tell me about how much space between the shell and frame of the ER or GXV? I don't think ER uses a subframe, not sure about GXV. I believe Turtle V did.
Thanks
Scott
