Thanks to Mike and Jon we got the front of the Ranger done this weekend and saw 2 of the other badass minis in Dedicated's KY Chapter. Excuse the valance, the new one is sitting in the spare bedroom.

Wow thats low.

Good work.

 

how do you keep your engine bay clean now?

 

We will be welding in some trailer fenders in the engine bay later in the year. For now it will just have to be cleaned quite often or stay dirty.

 

your truck looks good but it's too low for my taste. any more pics of that first gen?

 

So it's bagged now?

 

Yep, spent the last 4 weekends working on it, I am very satified with the result!

 

That is LOW. Looks awesome. Beautiful job.

 

I bet your tires won't last long now haha. Looks great!

 

Badassery!!!

 

looks alright, never really did care for the tilted front tire look. bet that wears some tires out fast

 

Looks good! I bet those horns are loud as all get out!

I think it looks bad ***. Thats not ur daily is it?

 

damn, i can remember when the truck looked like this




looks good dan

 

It doesn't stay that way. He has air bags, so when its picture time or when you park the truck you dump them and lay frame. When you are driving it I bet he raises it up about 2 1/2- 3 inches for driving, and then a possible 4- 4 1/2 to clear speed bumps. Its completely adjustable.

 

Thanks everybody, and wow I forgot about that picture of my truck...thats awesome!

Actually my daily is a 2001 Ford Focus ZX3, but it is parked about 5 days a week. I daily this truck, I only park it when the weather is bad (snow, ice). I ride cali alot (front up, *** down) and slammed (I push pebbles with my frame) when at low speeds.

 

That looks wicked! Nice work!

 

Looks awesome!
I think I liked it better static though. For some reason I just love REALLY low static dropped trucks. lol

 

from the looks of it a custom intake (or at least a new intake tube) is needed.

 

That's coming, but I need the cash first, this stuff is expensive. It looks really kinked by the picture, but it has been like that for months and plenty of air is getting though.

Looks great your air tube looks kinked tho you might wanna fix that

 

So whens the teardown for the body drop start?

 

1-2 years, we have to finish restoring and bagging our Datsun 521 first. Next in line is 4-linking the rear end and installing 2 more valves for side to side in the rear.

 

Nice first gens. I was thinking of doing that with my first gen

 

So how's it ride now with the bags?
