Porterbuilt Stage 1 Rear Kit?
Got my Porterbuilt Stage 1 Rear Kit in from Travis at Pro Performance and started working on it today. BTW Travis has been great help.
Was searching the forum for any pics of this kit installed to make sure I am headed in the right direction but can't seem to find any. Any pics or tips of anything you guys ran into would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Rob |

Fatback
How did you mount the cup to the frame? Did you have to drill two holes in the frame? It looks like I'm missing two shock relocater brackets based on your pic as well. Posted via Mobile Device |

Re: Porterbuilt Stage 1 Rear Kit?
Sorry to bother but do you guys have a side view with the bed mounted with it aired out? I'm curious about the kit and want to see how low it gets maybe one with a 2 inch block and mild notch???

You might ask him. Added lowering block? Removed inner fenders? Don't know.

Re: Porterbuilt Stage 1 Rear Kit?
Those are 4 shock studs for the shocks, that go into the shock relocator brackets.

Re: Porterbuilt Stage 1 Rear Kit?
For sure! I have the PB notch and trac bar, but I got my shock brackets from Speedway (CPP). Also have 1.5" blocks in the rear, and Stage 1 kit in the front with McGaughy's 2.5" spindles. I got all my PB stuff from Travis @ ProPerformance. If I ever do it again, I am going to go with a full kit. You don't save anything, really, by putting something together on your own. I am happy with the way my suspension turned out, and Travis's advice and Porterbuilt's quality played a big role!
