EDIT: Ah ha I figured it out, that means cutting the body panels so you can lay the truck down on the doors on 20s.
that means cutting the rockers out so when it airs out its on the door.

If the owner wanted to drive through mud holes he wouldn't have lowered it like he did. Of course he'd be pissed, it's like taking a Toyota Prius through a mud pit, you just don't do it. A lowered Ranger is better than an annoying rice burner, plus it looks better and it's domestic.

i personally like the truck. though i agree that as far as being a truck goes, it is pretty useless, but if he wanted to use it as a truck or take it "mudding" he wouldn't have bagged it. i respect anyone that puts that kind of work into a vehicle. oh and i also love the flat black.

How could he still not use it as a truck? Air the bags up and hitch a trailer up, it will still tow/haul just as much as ours can.

Unfortunately, to lay it out like that, he pretty much has no bed.

And you're LIKES GAAAAAAAY too.

It's a nice looking truck, a few things I would change, but other than that, it's a sick looking truck. I'd like to build me a 'mini' one day.

Not necessarily, he could have boxed over the wheel wells to cover the rear bags and tires when he tucks. I'd love to have a lifted and lowered Ranger

Definitely a nice truck but hes prob just running djm arms but all rangers get that much camber unless they swap to a toyota clip or m2.

I definitely love some people who are making fun of the truck when they are only running stock suspension or only a bodylift.
lol hahahha mark is right i love the reactions 2 and you know what mini truckin isnt just a style its a life and a passion that my friends is a tru mini trucker tuckin those 20's and drooping it on the high way shooting sparks @ the people behind him and laughing about it all i got 2 say is Drop and destroy if its 2wd and lift it in the sky if its 4wd thats the way this forum is besides a slim few with lifted 2wds

i still don't like a lowered truck...it's like Blackhawk said.
Nope. See a ranger/mazda stock has some *****, but when you put a 5/7 drop on it, its ***** start to drag on the ground every where it goes and eventually they rub off. This is when i classify it a car or wannabe truck.

Oh and about that suspension lift thing. If you really wanna get **** and i mean REALLY picky i do have aals which is a honest to gosh suspension lift. So i guess that means i can talk ****. What ever that is.

or any drop in that case.

I doubt with all that power your 2.5 has that it could crawl over that, or anything besides a curb.
