It might not look too bad, as a 2wd...lowered. Don't care for the look on a 4x4.

Re: 82 Shorty Stepside on ebay.

I agree. Short and tall equates to stubby in my book. Drop it and it would look pretty sweet...

Re: 82 Shorty Stepside on ebay.

I was thinking about slapping that front grill/headlight assembly on mine, but now looking at it, it might just be too busy to go along with stepside. Hmmmm... Have to wait and see what I end up with.

I must say that I an not a fan of the bed without the steps, just gets rid of the whole purpose of a stepside.

Re: 82 Shorty Stepside on ebay.

Can't tell me this doesn't look awesome





The problem with that stepper is that he built it like a 2wd, 4x4s don't need their mirrors shaved, and shiny paint, lol

Re: 82 Shorty Stepside on ebay.

Thats actually the original half ton chassis, but he moved the diffs around for better approach / departure angles. Otherwise when you try to climb a hill or come off an obstacle, you get stuck on the bumpers.
