I've never really been into lowering, so I know next to nothing about it...

What are my options? I want to lower the rat rod about 6 inches. What is the best (read: cheapest) method? And it's for a rat rod, so it doesn't have to be fancy

 

rear flip the axle over the leaves, flip hangers.. front dream beams, coils.. cut and hack as you see fit..

DJM beams, cut coils, flipkit and fliped rear hangers for about 5/7 drop

 

cheapest... take a torch to springs.... dont blame me when they fail haha
take leaves out of leaf pack*take to many out and they will crack
cut coils. cut slow to prevent too much heat


get a fat girlfriend

 

Lots of ghetto people on here or what? lol Cutting the coils. I would laugh. Spend the $100 and get a set of lowering coils. Or just get the DJM kit for about $650.

 

chevy lowering shackles work great on the ranger........

 

i would say lowering coils and flip the axle and flip the hangers

 

Get an axle from an exploder. They are already a spring under, this will net you 5 inches of drop I believe.

And front, just get a set of lowering coils, or if you want the DJM kit.

 

Dropping is sick.

You could just fill the bed with cement.
