Re: Lowered Longbed
Here's a mock up of mine (bad photochop) before I decided to bag it instead:
I hope to have all the wires run this weekend and might even get the rear bags in it too. The way i sits now, the front tire is just inside the wheel well when dumped. |

Re: Lowered Longbed
These were before the truck was shortened; 2.5" drop spindles, and the rear used 3" drop springs and 1.5"lowering blocks. Tires are 245/60-15 front and 275/60-15 rears on 15x8's all around.
