This is actually my favourite lowrider I have ever seen, good work man! I'm not usually a fan of lowered trucks, but this... this is a horse of a whole 'nother colour!

If you can't go through it or around it, then go over it.

when you have a tire blow because you have pulled the tire over at 100 mph in a 40 mph corner you will understand the big rims with the low sidewalls.

cool deal man, those cars are almost shaped the same, i know it took some work though, but you take a 60's dash and put it in a 80's truck, COMPLETELY different, it made me mad at first, and i thought about NOT doing it, but i REALLY REALLY wanted it lol

you mean in the airbag suspension? well it was a complete frame, 2x3x1/4 tubing

parts? well the compressors, tanks, valves, line, bags, brackets, four link, switch box, water traps, (im going all stainless 3/8 line so line and fittings ALONE are like $600) a bunch of crap is like $2,000

then to build a frame like that? about $3,500

considering i bought the truck for $800 and IT RUN FINE AND ONLY HAD 29,000 MILES ON IT WHEN I BOUGHT IT! i kinda feel dumb! lmao, but hey, its cool as crap man

you can bag a truck (one of these rangers) for like $2,500 (you doing it, its not THAT hard)



well if a mod could move it to the "lowrider" section and rename it like Project: LOWrange id appreciate it

ill keep ya'll posted on the dash fellas! lol
