I'd rather have a slammed b2 than any other suv slammed... Not saying I'm slamming anything but... I have to admit I like that one. Its different. It stands out. It's custom.

I think that B2 would look sweet if the chopped about 3 inches out of the top. No idea how they would get glass for the back windows after that though...

Jim,

I honestly cannot picture you driving a slammed BII....I know Joel wants to build a slammed BII...maybe you two could cruise together.
Joel scraped that idea and is building a lowered gen2 ranger. finally have him back interested in a ranger. i tease him every time i show up at his place with his old truck.

Gen1 front ends for BII's all day long!! Gen1 or 2 for rangers. Gen1 with non stx-styled grills on explorers. Great find. I'm starting to wonder how hard a 302 swap in an 84 B2 would be......

Now, one of these days I want to do a 2-3 or 3-4 drop and turbo on the S-10, but it's a 4-cyl 2wd and I already get my nose stuck on the frame if I use my creeper. Unloaded, that thing runs circles around my Ranger already though. Gotta hurry up and get that 4.0 swap done.
