casey · 07-27-2003, 01:26 AM

very impressive ride

yooper · 07-27-2003, 06:39 PM

I'm not sure what kind of drop it is. I'm used to lifting trucks not lowering. Anybody have any ideas how much of a drop it is?

tires are 275/60/15's.

Its not in perfect shape and needs a bit of work. I was originally going to buy a beater and fix it up completely but every hunk of junk I looked at the owner wanted a mint for it. I found this for a decent price locally and figured what the heck. I'll run it for a while when i'm collecting parts and than tear it down and build it back up.

Iron-Butt · 07-28-2003, 03:19 AM

Welcome from Texas. I like the two tone look.

yooper · 07-28-2003, 04:52 PM

I was just diggin through some of the paperwork that came with my truck.

it has a 4" drop in the rear and a 2" in the front.

I also found the warrenty info from the original owner and all of the original service manuals.

I like those wheels. Back in the day they were called Daiseys. Now everyone calls them 200s Americans.

Very nice
