yeah it goes suck about the truck but oh well you move on. Thanks for the support, I do appreciate it. Hopefully this truck will be laying frame soon

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds
 

first on the list for me would be a LOUD alarm for the truck before doing work on it
darn people can't leave other peoples stuff alone ...... hope they wrap themselves around a tree driving it

Great door panels. Did you do recover them yourself? I would like to do something like that to mine. What did you use to get the fabric to stick so well. If you have any other tips, that would be great!

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds
 

Here is a couple recent pics of mine. Not really anything new, just some kinda cool pictures. I still want to go a little lower.

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds
 

That way you can sweep the driveway the easy way? :lol: Looks good man!

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds
 

looks low enough to me , you can go lower but with a static drop you prolly need to drive around anything more than 1 inch deep to keep the oilpan under the trck

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds
 

Much lower and you may have issues with the c arms hitting or turning issues. In the picture you can see the c arms are not far from the ground and the tire is close to the fender and could cause problems for you. I know when I drive mine real low I have to raise it up some to turn and depending on the road the arms do drag, also you from valance will hit speed bumps.
Looks good the way it is.

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds
 

Looks great to me. I 'd like mine to ride about that high. Could you give me some drop info( drop height, drop components, tire and rim size, ect.)?
