Notching The Rear Frame For Air Ride

[SuicidedRegal]

Just wanted see what other people have done. I seen the thread on here about notching but I wanna see air ride specific to lay frame. Can I lay frame with out cutting the trunk floor. Thought about tubbing the rear but what do you do with the trunk hinge bracket that sits on the wheel well. Any input and/or pics would be great. Oh yeah it's on a 84 Regal. I'm talking the actual frame not the front crossmember.

Autoloc sells a hinge kit I was thinking about using that & making the trunk open with an actuator but I was just gonna cut the inner half of the wheel well away since thats the only real problem.

Just re-route them. Run them down your frame rail or just cut them where needed & lengthen them. Do you have any pics of where you cut the trunk floor? Any in process pics?
