opinions raise or drop

[ChrisMonsod]

i was thinking black rims mud tires 31 or 32s what ever clears

black nerf step up bars
tool box
leveling the front 2 inch

or

drop it 3front/4back drop
18 or 20 lightning replica wheels
lighning replica body kit

I can respect both options.. but if you lift it, you will get 2wd problems.. like getting stuck, or everyone asking you if its 4wd

[toolow]

bag it chris

[SSpiro]

Lift it, 2WD or not.. just for the look enough is great. There are already WAY too many bagged or lowered trucks around here. :roll:

Don't go with black rims though.. Doesn't look right on a F150.

I would drop it- but not on the frame- Doing a life and adding mudding tires suck- unless you like the sound of whinning tires- and it you drop it to much- you be rubbing and hitting deps everywhere.

[toolow]

better idea trade me your accord for my bagged sonoma and raise the f150 and you'll have both.. now isent that a good idea?

Lower that sucker with a nice roush kit for an excellent drop (not too ghetto low) and a huge ride improvement sports-wise. By the way, that is a very nice clean ride dayum!!!! is that a side exhaust?... tyte

drop it......i dont really like lifted trucks..btw that red truck in the pic looks so good

[m0nk3y]

lift!

[Graves]

Lift the rear and drop the front . . . .




















J/k I think the single cabs look better lowered than lifted, then I have only seen two.

[UrbanRR]

i got quotes almost $900 to drop mine....almost had minor stroke...and i only have a 94 mazda b2300

[ChrisMonsod]

well lets put it this way
DROP
-shakles hangers and front coils 250
-lightning kit painted 900
-lightning rep 20s w/ tires 2000
3150

RAISE
-front leveling kit 100
-31x10.50/15 with black steel crawler rims 700
-brush guard 300
-nerf bars 200
-tool box 240
1540

is still dont know which way to go ..
to raise is cheaper by but
droping it is much cooler looking ..
and raising is looks just as cool ... im so screwed
i have no idea what to do ..

[UrbanRR]

drop it like its hott....

[Big Jon]

Drop it, looks way better, put some 22 inch chrome wheels on it, do a navagatior front end conversion on it and some navagator front seats in side. PIMP!!!!

[chevySS]

bling bling...

this will be a must see. PICS?? or an idea what it looks like

[Topless T/A]

sell it, buy a chevy, then lift it:D

...and lowered trucks look gay IMO, unless it truely is a sport-truck like a Lightning and you got some nice horsepower #'s where you might need better handling,etc.

[tampamax]

Sorry i can't help you decide here, but i think your truck is REEEEEEAAAAAALLY clean the way it is. I don't know what it is but that truck looks damn good just the way it is. Just throw some deep tint on it and ride out. Save your money for other things.
I think it would be a damn shame to change the ride height on that truck. It just looks so good the way it is.

[markzeronine]

chris.. you've done the bling bling.. and you've done the lowered cars.

RAISE this bitch man!!

[rviray]

1) drop it

2) put 20"

but don't make it look like the lightning...there are other way better looking body kits out there....

[ChrisMonsod]

thanks for the advice guys

[TBSpyder]

Dropping a truck is queerer than a football bat. Do a moderate lift kit and some 35's.

[prymerintegra]

dude jack it up put a 3 inch susp. and a 3 inch body throw some 36's on it and be done well itlle look better w/ like 5 in the front and 3 in the back suspension lift wise then the body lift

slam that bia$$$ on its nuts
