Stepside lowered

Stayed late last night at work and lowered my truck. Overall pretty happy with the outcome. Flipkit and shock extenders in the rear and cut the front coils.

Re: Stepside lowered

I've had this truck since late October. Was in storage until May and just now starting to tinker with it a little. I traded an older sportster even up for it and wasn't to sure if I liked the truck at first. Now im starting to love it.
