thanks again the lowering kit in my truck is pieced together i have shackels and hangers in the rear with one leaf removed, and for the front i have mcnaughtys 2.5 drop spindles, and wither a 2 in drop coil or i cut i ring off the facroty one i cant really remember but its about a 4.5 drop in the front

i would like to bring the rear down a lil more kinda on the fence about how much rake the truck has haha

thanks for all the positive comments guys,
whats your guys's opinions on how the truck sits should i leave it or lower the back end some more?

thanks again

CoggedBelt75 · 05-11-2011, 11:04 PM

Lower, IMO.

my4by2 · 05-12-2011, 03:41 AM

A little lower on the rear would look a little nicer, but definitely not totally level as it detracts from the overall "hot rod" look of it I think! Truck looks killer as is though!!!

baclay9 · 05-12-2011, 07:14 AM

So are those 18"x9.5" in the rear and 18"x8" in the front? What size are the rear tires?

Pop's C-10 · 05-12-2011, 07:16 AM

I like tha stance now..

silvereagle07 · 05-12-2011, 07:43 AM

Wow it looks awesome!

dropd80s · 05-12-2011, 10:09 AM

Looks good, I would lower the rear a little. Just enough to leave you some rake. I also think I know why your speedo isn't working.

meme1911 · 05-12-2011, 10:22 AM

what is the gray box in the back of the box?.... nice truck!

manimal · 05-12-2011, 10:56 AM

That is a sweet ride! Thanks for the pics

jablack · 05-12-2011, 11:39 AM

Good looking truck. Looks like you need to hook up your speedo cable though

muthstryker · 05-13-2011, 01:30 AM

Very nice truck, Drop the rear 2-3 inches and call it a day. Theres just to much rake, other then that looks really good. Are you planning to ever do the rear brake kit?
