A figured I’ll start a build thread for my truck I stead of just updating the new member post lol. Bought the truck in NH with 120k on the clock, was sitting in the barn with the original bed cap that I do plan to use, just need to get more vinyl. So to start off the truck is fully vinyl wrapped in 3M Metallic Black, 3” sport truck belltech drop kit, 2.5” drop spindles from Airbagit.com, 3” drop leafs from Airbagit.com, front and rear anti sway kit from Belltech, 2.5” bolt/weld c notch kit, full replacement of the front of including panels (Hood, fenders, front bumper). Super excited with how the truck is coming along, playing with the idea of red tint on windows/lights along with this roof wing I got from a M series BMW truck, it works but doesn’t so I’m still not sure about it. Interior I’m trying to leave period correct but it’s hard lol might end up doing a full interior swap to black but we shall see. Currently have the front end apart to shorten the springs the belltech came with. Another inch up front should do the trick.

cool lookin truck (doesn't seem to sit that low)
so that's a 3 + 2.5= 5.5" drop in front ?
3" lower/leaf out back.... no blocks ?
what shocks ?
did u get parts recently/parts still available ?
lower ride, firmer springs & sway bars, truck should ride tight and handle solid

yeah the pics of the truck with the wheels on it is when it only have the belltech 3” drop, don’t have pics of it with everything else since it’s apart for the new springs I got up front. Once I get the new lips and barrels for the 3 piece wheels I’ll add pics of it’s new height. I added 5” blocks to the rear as well which I forgot to mention

Achievement unlocked - master of enthusiasm :grin:

It's not until you click onto that last image and zoom in on it that you realise how clean this truck really is. Black is an absolute biatch to get looking nice. You've got one sharp looking ride Dougal :thumbup: So what's in the pipeline for the interior?
