1967 Chevrolet C10 Custom Chassis Fabrication - Picking Up the Pieces
11b. You might have noticed that there is no kick-up at the rear of the chassis that is often found on lowered trucks. The reason for this is that since the rear suspension moves independently of the rear differential, we were able to hard-mount the differential and run the framerails below the control arms. This design has its good points. First off, it keeps all of the components low, which means the bed floor won't have to be raised substantially. But, since the framerails don't kick up, it also means they will be visible from behind the truck, unless we bolt a back bumper in place to hide them. We'll cross that bridge when we get to it.
