Those Boss 338 look sweet on your ride.

**Corts60** · 03-24-2012, 09:07 PM

Very clean truck!

**N2TRUX** · 03-24-2012, 09:24 PM

Wow! What a change that made. It went from clean and simple to rock star. I'm curious what it might look like with the grill and headlight bezels painted to match the wheels?

JAG66 · 03-24-2012, 10:38 PM

Looks good either way. How did you get the additional drop?

Cut a full coil off the front and put a flip kit on the rear.

How does the truck ride with the cut coils and flip kit? It looks great with the new wheels!
