As far as the body drop goes, your truck has the perfect stance right now...but if you decide to put it on, I'm sure it will look great too. Either way will still make for an awesome truck. Ultimately, it's your choice though!

I dig the bdrop idea. Maybe give the fan shroud and rad mount a good eye for clearance when the core is dropped before pulling the trigger. Tons of work there and great detail to go trimming on for 3/4". Your doing a great job man. I knew I picked the right project for inspiration.

TXPinstriper · 03-09-2012, 12:34 PM

If your that close you might as well go all the way to the bottom! Does a new welder mean a new welding cart Maybe bigger and better!?
