You think those are worn out check out the coils we pulled off the front end.


The guy I bought the truck from heated them to lower the truck.

Well that wasn't what I was shooting for in that pic. I'll get a better one of the dual 40 series flows that'll be on soon.

Well, I'm not into the bag scene myself, but I do admire all the work it takes to install it. And it is nice to be able to raise and lower it to suit. I've also heard that the ride is great, like riding on air.

Does look good though.

I guess I'm sort of weird anyway. Not many 48 year old men like lowered trucks in the first place. I would probably like a bagged truck too if I rode/played in one.

I've been to too many truck shows. I think it's a mid life crisis that caused all this stuff.

I don't know bout that Mike.

I see alot of older guys riding around in clean lowered trucks. Mostly '88-'98s but i've seen a few in '73-'87s.

Most of them I would say are up into there 50's and 60's.

My dad likes the lowered trucks. '67-'72 mostly. And he's 46. I bet most of our dads would like to have your truck, or some of the others guys' trucks here on this site. I hope when I get to be that ripe old age, that I still like lowered trucks.

Maybe then we'll have lowered Chevys with 1 cyl. 500HP Nitrogen hybrid motors or something.

Well thanks guys, I think.

Paul says, when he gets to be that ripe old age, and now Jon, you say, not all that weird.

I'm sure both of you meant well, but you hurt me deeply. What you are really saying is, yeah, I'm old as dirt, and pretty weird at that.

I thought you guys liked me?

Just kidding guys. I knew what you meant.

I am a old, weird guy. I plan on being dirty one of these days too. I think if you live long enough to get old, you deserve the right to be a dirty old man. I'm going to be a good one too.

You know, it's funny being 48. People who are 60 don't seem so old anymore.
