omg!
I don't know about you guys but i think that's TOO low. 3/5 seems to be the best stance. But maybe that's just me.

Sweet mother... dang that's low, what the heck. I dont think there's much use to having a "truck" that low. I dunno i respect the work and the look but that low and you'd be scraping EVERYTHING you touched on, seems like it'd be destroying the truck.

Don't you think that truck probably has air ride and can be raised much higher if need be?

Project1970 · 05-14-2002, 02:35 AM

I agree, IMO, a 2.5/4 or 3/5 drop works best on these trucks...the former for more stock-appearing trucks (like mine, heh...full chrome / badging, etc) and the latter for more modded ones (roll pans, shaved badges, etc).

Though that does look cool...

GreenMystChevy · 05-14-2002, 02:46 AM

I'm sure this guy has some air bags to get that thing higher if he wanted too. He just likes to drive it that low when the road conditions allow.
I think it's a pretty sweet ride , I just wonder how long he will go without having to do a repaint of the whole lower part of his truck from all of the times he puts it on the ground.
Gotta love the creative side of the mind!

Yeah, hes definitely running bags, he works at IF Customs. They are starting to get alot of camera time out in So Cal. They have an article in the new StreetTrucks mag, its a body dropped Chevy with the stock floor. Their work is way cool. At 6'4", I could dig a stock floor body drop.
