Question?
I am new to this whole restoration thing. What does " the truck is mounted 3 inches off of the frame" mean?

Re: Question?
i would assume it means the truck has a 3 inch body lift. Which is basically the body mount bushings are 3 inches thicker than stock.

You will usually see this in the threads where someone is putting the truck body on a newer frame... like a S10 or Dakota. |

Re: Question?
Or 4wd that may have been lifted too. also involves lengtening brake lines, longer shocks, throttle linkage adjustment, brake and clutch pedel changes, sometimes shifter, and lots of minor stuff.
