No concern of humps because leafs? Nope kinda trial and error tho. First one we did like this. The bumper height is 22 to bottom, double dimpled, extra bodymounts, etc.... It’s almost done needs a bit more welding. interested to see how it works out for ya... Mine blew the humps still being leafed but i had a 74 caddy full tracking the ass end...

I'd make i relief in the top of the quarter where you have it dimpled. Poundit down to a small U to encourage the roll just my 2 cents

Anyone ever had any luck putting a pointy on a late 70s caddy? How did the frame rails hold up?
