Re: body drop. is it worth it? help?

yes you can get an inch out of this mod.. as i stated before.. but with this case... he isnt removing the cab fro m the truck, thus making it alot harder to do..

and like i said you still have to cut the bed floor to lower it to match the cab..

This mod is not easy, dbmx66 is looking for easy
