Ya, those are good numbers to use, maybe a hair lower since your allowed hump plates.

Awesome thanks for the advice! I’ll be running my 15in skidders on it. Didn’t think I’d want it to be to low since I’m not putting leafs on it. Be my first time changing out rears so it should be interesting to say the least. haha

With the ztr brackets it is honestly really easy. Mine took me an hour and a half, never having done it before with having to find tools. I had the body off which helped a lot but still should be super easy. Any questions just let me know. Ratchet straps are definately your friend to pull the axle housing whichever way you need it to go.

As long as my brackets get here by this weekend I’m going to try and get it done. I also have the body off and plenty of ratchet straps.

just make sure to leave all bolts loose till you get every bolt into place.

Didn't try that but I will on the next one.

Be my first time changing out rears so it should be interesting to say the least. haha Elliot if you need help all you have to do is ask. You know that I have run a few of those. If you want just look at mine. I'm to cheap to buy brackets, I just always welded some box tube on and let it eat.

I guess what I’m really asking though if the Lincoln 98-02 and Vic 98-02 are the same frame because I know that 91-97 Lincoln’s frames are a bit wider but didn’t know if that was the case with 98-02s
