Here's some pics of some bodydropped trucks and cars.









Just thought you guys would want to see some really clean trucks. I know Show&Lo will.

Good stuff bro! Body dropping cars & trucks is LOTS of fun. Nothing like making a car lay rockerpanels or better yet....DOORS! wink.gif Good times, good times..... smile.gif

 

You should check out Twistedkoncepts.com...they have a clean Dakota on there. Nice interior too. I work with the guy and he also has a dually ready to show.

 

Okay...I understand the performance aspect of lowering your car/truck a tad, I even understand the idea of modifing the performance of your car by putting a body kit on it...and i understand a cool paint job to make it look good...

but WHY, WHY, WHY do that to a TRUCK? Trucks are meant for Hauling....why drop/modify the truck to the point that it is useless for it's intended purpose?

Rice boys at least race...what are these guys going to DO with these trucks? Scar pavement till the frame wears away?

 

those trucks would be torn to bits on baltimore pothole and dip infested streets.


they look tight though

 

Random..well..here's the thing. Everyone that does this has some kind of adjustab;e suspension. Whether it be an air ride or hydraulics. Alot shows that you go to, will have a "Lowest Vehicle" class. People will go to the point where they modify their quarter panels, and door sills so that they can actually lay the bottom of their doors on the pavement. (Modification I did to a friends truck) People will put hydraulics or an air ride on their truck, and as oyu know..most SUV's or trucks have frames that extend down below the body by a couple of inches. So people will body drop, or "Channel" as hot rodders call it..their vehicles. With cars...there isn't as much involved in doing this because the body and frame are even with each other. With my car, when I let the air out all the way, it looks like it's body dropped because I can almost lay the body right on the ground. When ever you have an adjustable suspension, you're able to raise it to stock or above stock levels. So even though these trucks/cars can lay really low, they don't drive that like that! wink.gif

 

I may not own a pickup, but I give mad props to those that put time and effort into it. We all have one thing in common, we like dicking with our rides. Many minitruck shows you go to will have imports there. It's all about getting together, having some brews, and bullsh*tting about our favorite hobby.

Oh yea, and boobs.

 

2k lo n sho and Random:

Not to mention, it is just plain fun! A decent amount of work with high yields.
