It's all in how you set it up. We had a BMW 335I & now there's a M3 sitting in the driveway. The 335I had 35 series 18's, the M3 rolls on 30 series 19's & rides just fine. A 40 series on air w/enough shock & suspension travel will be the same.

What does rim size have to do with sidewall height? You can have "band aid tires" on 17's or 18's too.

GVizzle- I think the 22's all around would rock. We mounted Keiths up here in Houston, and lets just say it left me with some hard feelings.

PBFAB.COM · 08-28-2009, 12:43 AM

Made some more progress today. Removed the entire front suspension and crossmember; removed the entire rear suspension; removed the exhaust; removed the brake and fuel lines; and INSTALLED the new DROPMEMBER!

The new DropmemberV3.2 (it's pretty sexy if I may say so)

I like a nice set of bare frame-rails!

Welded in the rack notches.

In with the Dropmember!

VA72C10 · 08-28-2009, 01:38 AM

Looking good.

**lks dcvn** · 08-28-2009, 08:20 AM

LUV2XCLR8 · 08-28-2009, 06:06 PM

In like Flin

PBFAB.COM · 08-28-2009, 06:38 PM

Just an FYI...

We will be taking the truck down to the bare chassis, and having the entire thing powdercoated.

This build will also be sporting our new "Bolt-on Body Drop" kit.

It's best to send me an e-mail or PM with your phone number and a good window of time when I can reach you. That way I can give you a call and we can discusss it better and then go from there.

The chassis work is all stuff that I can give a solid bid on. Most of the sheet-metal and some other types of work are all "time and materials".
