    nice ride!!

    so can you still take corners, or do you have to just chill? also how close are things like the oil pan, crossmember, and control arms. i have considered skidpan.

    theres not to many options for lowering the front in these model truck. im sure coilovers would be great...but thats a lot of work and money, worth it though.
