    Yea, I had almost the same truck I have now back in '95 (when bagged trucks didn't quite exist, yet) and never finished it. Back when trucks were an inch off the ground with no bags. So thats what I'm gonna do to this truck.

    It's not the right bodystyle but I lowered my 78 about 7" all around. It will tuck the lip of a 17 on the front. Tucks a few inches of tire now. I don't have a computer with net but will post a picture later tonight. Unless somebody wants to. It's the mork thread in the old trucks.

    attached are a pic of my old school 83 yota back in hawaii with 3in drop blocks for the rear, and adjusted torsion up front, sitting on stang wheels. Then there's a pic of my current 86 sr5 project with 3in blocks in the rear, and adjusted torsion up front. Still have to flip my ball joints and find some drop shocks, rims, bodywork, paint, and so on....

    For random comparison, what is the roof height on your guys trucks? Sd mainly since he is one of the lowest. I'm at 54" flat.

    I am riding on 1" bumpstops in the rear with middle leaf pulled and three inch blocks until i install my notch and 4"blocks. Up front i flipped b/j cranked bars, next is to install smaller profile tires and get lower control arms and shocks. So im riding 4"front and 4"rear.
