It would be easy to lower it back to stock. Or are you thinking of going lower? In that case, sell/trade it for a 2WD.

Nice looking stepper but if you want it low you need a 2wd truck or go through a huge hassle to convert it to 2wd.

Re: 1974 chevy cheyenne Stepside

You can lower it to stock height or a bit lower, but thats about it. If you really want a lowered truck your going to need to convert this one to 2wd or sell it off and get what you want.

If you got a good deal on a solid truck I suggest you keep it. I love lowered trucks, but a clean lifted stepper is cool too. Find some pics of lifted trucks and see what you think. You might decide that you like that look too.

Its ok to like both styles...

Re: 1974 chevy cheyenne Stepside

That sounds like a good deal to my. If it were mine, I would clean it up and see what I could get out of it. If you can double your money, then apply that to a nice 2wd your moving forward. I have found that trading never seems to work out.
