Raked trucks

Could I see some pictures of trucks lowered IN THE FRONT ONLY. Shortbeds especially, but feel free to post LWB rakes also. I love that stance. It looks so.... mean.

I'm thinking of dropping the front 2"-3". Just shorter coils, no major spindle change or anything.

Re: Raked trucks

A little rake is a good thing....I'll post a pic of mine tomorrow morning...it is a long bed with stock springs...I am swapping in 3/4 ton rear springs and I expect a bit of rake.
