That isn't a "dropmember" though. That is a raised crossmember. Where did you purchase that one from?

Look real close and you will see the initials "PB" ... pretty sure it's a dropmember.

I think you need at least three more arrows to really get the point across. ;)

I've been wondering how many of these trucks with dropmembers are finished and actually get driven some. I've started driving mine quite a bit although mine wasn't built to win show trophies. It has old paint and trim, inside of the bed isn't finished, etc.

I'd say the dropmember is a considerable investment, and had I the means to purchase one it would be tough to justify not driving it every chance I got. Not only because of the expense but to experience the enhanced geometry and steering. Not to mention the looks.

Beautiful truck btw.

No worries, it could be easy to confuse the original style Dropmember with the competition's piece. ;)
