Fat Bar Install Question for Rob

[Tincup]

Hey Rob, I'm getting ready to weld my Fat bar in permanently, but I cannot find anything in the instructions on angle of the bars.

Should the bottom bar be;

( Looking From the side )

A: Parallel to the ground.
B: Parallel to the chassis.
C: Dosen't matter.

Thanks

Lower bars should be parallel to the ground at ride height. - Not Rob

right you are. Thanks. The key there is to have the axle positioned at ride height. a slight up slope on the lower bar is OK, but we would like to see it within 5* of level. Also, "...parallel to the ground.. or .. chassis.. " I would suggest you set the chassis level when performing any chassis mods.

Thanks Rob, Just a little FYI , on Dodge trucks ( 61 to 71 ) the body and chassis are not parallel. I found this out the hard way.
