Re: lowered my truck! a little too much

1 tons are not useless if ya lower them. You can haul just as much if you do it right. I am looking for a 87'-91' drw crew cab in the near future to slam on the ground. Low is the only way to go!!!

Re: lowered my truck! a little too much

Well i have a change of plans recently and im going to try and look for a k5 blazer so this one has to go. wish i can keep both but as a college student i could use something with a lil better gas mileage and something smaller to park.

Re: lowered my truck! a little too much

No my pickup isn't even lifted and I don't pull at all because it has a 700r4 and it will slip if I look at it wrong
