Ive been reconsidering the bed mount for my truck too. I'm only 370" though so your bigger cubes are helping it spool faster than mine will I am sure. Still, gives me hope that I can do it this way if I have to.

Nice truck BTW.

gettin down for sure! Slow the front extension down. If you cant do that, pull a bunch of front travel out.

Id like to hear about the combo as well.

I was coming in here to call bs, that's a hell of a truck for sure !! I can't wait to start fabricating a twin setup for my car this winter. If I can keep ac and get 4 digit power from a max effort 408 and twins , regardless of where they're mounted , It'll make my whole year. Guaranteed it's either gonna be remote or mid mount , as I see no way possible too do it up front.

That's wicked... what a launch! For a straight line car I wouldn't have any issue with a rear mount.
