Amazing how many 88-98's are DROPPED around here!

Seems like EVERY 88-98 1500 I see around here that's lowered, is lowered 5+/7+ !!! There's NONE that are just like 3/5's or anything small..they're all LOW. Interesting finding. Anyone else notice this in your town?

Mine's a 5/6 drop and it's about average for around here. I live in a town of 19k people and probably see 5 or 6 deeply lowered trucks around every day.

Mine's 2/4. It would be much lower, but I pull a 23' fifth wheel with it for holidays. Sure drive much nicer with the trailer now that it's lowered. Thought it would need airbags, so bought all the stuff, but haven't had time to build brackets to mount them. Seems to be OK without.

Here's mine running a 4/6. I'm about the only one lowered in my town. Might be 1 or 2 more. BTW, autopainter13 is that green (Bright metallic teal) color on your truck the factory green like my truck. I was wanting to color my truck kinda like yours but with the colors switched, black on top and green on bottom with tangerine pearl flames seperating the two. I attached a pic of a quick photoshop of what I would kinda like it to look like later on. Of course with a better flame job.
