yes i caught that

i thought about putting "btw, i noticed the sarcasm" but decided against it

i appreciate all types of custom vehicles except for ricers, not import tuners there's a difference

 

Your right about the import tuners and ricers. There is nothing wrong with a NA 1.6L that revs to 11k rpms and runs mid 12's in the 1/4, while still getting 30mpg.

A ricer is just some vehicle with too much flashy crap thats held on with 3M tape.

 

exactly and as i see it ricers are also visual mods only and think that stock is fast

now back onto the badass truck

 

thanks guys!

 

Wait, you don't think I'm in high school do you?

Yea, I have lowered and lifted my truck.

It was originally lowered 2/3, the lifted 5", then lowered 2/4 again, now it's gonna be 4/7 for a while and then it'll be bagged hopefully before the end of the year.

IMO, I'm one of the last people to tell someone that altering your suspension is stupid.

 

no i dont, i was just saying that because when i was in HS everytime i talked about lowering a truck for handling everyone would always say why in hell would you lower a truck, either lift it on mudders or buy a car for handling

but then again the only car enthusiasts in my school were the import tuners, ricers, and rednecks w/ lifted 4x4s, and 1 or 2 that were into the bagged out show trucks

 

My son has a 07 silverado classic 4x4. After seeing this thread he lowered his truck 5" front using belltech 2" spindles and keys. The rear is 7" . The problem is the front . The alignment shop can't get back to spec. The camber is -3.50 and caster is 5.20. So I called Belltech , djm , & McGaughys They all say you can't go lower then 2-3" up front , Because you will get upper ball joint bind and wipe out the cv's. Then you have the spindle - lower a-arm battle. They all say I'll never get it aligned with more then 2-3" drop. Please help.

 

I'd start a new thread, there's a few people on here that could really help out! Hope you get it sorted out!

 

i couldnt get my to align either, and honestly the ride wasnt worth the heigh, i have converted to 2wd now with shockwave front suspension, in my opinion slap the stock keys back in and crank those down. it rode like **** 5" lower due to the shocks havin no play

 

that truck is SICK,,,,very nice
