What would be the correct way to measure the frame for a rack so that you get the best mounting for one. Thats all im needing to know before i start putting the front.end on this thing is where i need to measure and exatly which rack i would need with those measurements.

NO,you're going to mount the suspension first. Some things just must be done in the right order.This is one.

but something else also, isn't an American at all.  We have room for but one
flag, the American flag... We have room for but one language here, and that is
the English language... and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a
loyalty to the American people."

yup suspension first, then some mock tie rods "scrap shit" then clamp the rack and check for bump steer, this is how you have to when your not a cad guru... make the tie rods so they can be shortened and lengthened, then move the rack forward backward up down etc and find the sweet spot....

I think the 14.25 to 16.25 adjustable end loader will be perfect for your application...

But don't mount it yet.
