I fully intend on lowering this truck, but not in the sense that my butt is scraping the ground. More like, I don't want to make some stereotypical mini-truck out of it. I don't want big chrome rims on low profiles, slammed high in the fenders, more of a sensible thing if that makes sense. I hear of all these people lowering their trucks and having to make all kinds of adjustments, but still being in school, I'm looking for things that are to an extent, budget friendly, but not so cheap that the "upgrades" I'm adding aren't going to last. Again, I kind of have champagne taste on a beer budget, but on top of lowering it, i don't want to do a super-static build. I'm trying to be able to daily this in mild comfort. I have access to multiple lifts, and a shop with any tool I'd imagine I would need. Any suggestions?
Here's the truck

 

Look good. I would start with getting the maintenance taking care of first.

 

I def need to focus on that. New Oil, Trans fluid, brake fluid, and tires. What's some basic stuff i should look at?
