Since I have no interest in lowering my own truck, I've never paid too much attention to the details, but I have a question regarding this truck.
There seems to be a fair bit of negative camber in the front wheels, or is it just an optical illusion. If it's for real, is this normal? Or is it a result of the drop, or bags, or whatever? Just a question from the curious peanut gallery. ![]() Thanks, ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Just love shaved trucks. The color scheme is awsome and very clean. I agree lose the taillights. But who cares, I think I could overlook the taillights the truck was given to me.Ha Ha

It's definitely a sweet ride but for me the two tone doesn't work on the front fender--it just doesn't look right with the body lines.

Zilverado just wanted to further comment on Prerunner1982's response. On a bagged vehicle you find what pressure gives you a comfortable ride height. Once that is determined you have the front end aligned at that pressure. When you lay it out the wheels will lean in, but when you air it up to the proper pressure your alignment returns.
I think the truck is very good looking. I don't have a real problem with the clear tails because they blend with the color. Maybe a better choice would have been to shave the tails too. The problem I have with this truck is the stance. I am all for a laid out truck, but I don't agree with the rear laying lower than the front. Look at the lines of the truck. It looks bent in the middle. This is because of the rear being lower than the front. Call me old school, but if a hot rod doesn't have a proper stance, then it ain't a hot rod... ![]()

Yes, my truck has wheels and tires installed right now. The driveshaft bottoms out under the cab when aired out. ![]()

A better way would be to save them to your hard drive and then attach them to the thread. They can't stop linking from your hard drive for sure. ![]()
