Bought the kit for four dollars at a gas station. Droped down one inch, I could have bought 8 bags and droped it two inches, I can always find a fat chick to stand on my bumper and if she bounces I can have hydrolics. Barn- im glad you think im serious ------------- [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v291/anthonymartinez/402cdjo-1.gif"> |

Yeah mudding with nearly bald tires is a good idea especialy with a 2wd pick up although I could put on my snow chains

| I used cat litter to lower my corolla, and for the winter, if you get stuck, it adds traction if you dissasemble the kit and spread it on the ground. |

 Veary
nice. I lowered my ranger that way a few times. One time i
used mytool box and ended up brakeing a leaf spring  .
Then while mudding i blew aa u-joint on the right front and the trans
has about had it since i moved and towed 3500lbs behinde it LOLI cant wait to get it going again though cause i miss playing in the dirt but now wit the new car i can finally do some work to this thing and getting it working GOOD  . Its
getting a 3" body lift soon to replace the rotted body mounts too and
probly run 32" rubber then. gona trow a upgradeed 4r44e trans
into it and replace the whole front end Bearings ball joints all
linkage and all ujoints. THEN im gona attempt painting the truck
either fllat black or a red similer to yours with bed liner matterial
on the bottom half of the truck.------------- AGD 68 Automag Azodin KPII Sheridan PGP2K Tippmann Crossover XVR Tippmann ProCarbine Tippmann SL68-II Tippmann TiPX |

Does not realy do much, Having my moms husband in the truck effects gas mileage more. The roads were realy greasy and when my tires spun they hopped alot so I put the sandbags in to eliminate the wheel hop Paint it red. The color of my truck is 2K Candy Apple Red its a ford color. Or forget about painting it and get a couple do it yourself box liner kits and do the whole outside of your truck. ------------- [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v291/anthonymartinez/402cdjo-1.gif"> |
