I thought you sold that truck? looks good. Are you running cups/plates in front or do you have cupped/tubular arms?

Re: bagged or lowered crew cab pics wanted

Wouldn't bags be better for a daily driver instead of a static drop? Just more expensive...

It looks a little different these days. They're sporting some 24x14 Intro's w/the 405mm tires out back which required a narrower rear housing & a triangulated 4-bar. Oh yeah... no mo bed floor....

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.

Re: bagged or lowered crew cab pics wanted

I think I'm Guna go with air. I talked to azproperformance.com and they said they could do pretty much everything for 6200. Which was porterbuilt front and rear drop member compressors tanks everything. Sounds pretty fair to me.

Re: bagged or lowered crew cab pics wanted

This is probably a dump question but if you run bags do you ruin a lot of front tires. Or is there a system that will keep truck at a level that wont effect tires like the Lincoln mark 8 cars

Align the truck @ ride height. Return to that height for ideal alignment & minimal wear. Any other height & the wear excells.
