Cooter you have a valid point but my 3/4 came with coils so no leafs I can see where a leaf sprung truck might have a problem if not reinforce properly

Re: Any pics of lowered 3/4 tons

I am a glazier and would like to be able to transport windows (for high rises) around the job site and to our shop, or other jobs. I want to be able to haul a lot of weight but still be low enough to the ground to unload the frames easily. So I guess I am asking for the best of both worlds.

Re: Any pics of lowered 3/4 tons

I took my glove box door to the paint shop they waxed up the inside and took a picture or scan to get the paint to match. It turned out a little darker than factory but I like it. My avatar is the before pic of my cab.
