How dare you suggest something so low!

I've already lowered this truck once.
Back in its glory days this truck had a 12" lift with 44" Super Swampers.
About 7 years ago removed the big lift and installed a 4" lift with 35" tires.  That project involved changing the axles (I went from 5.13 gears to 4.11's, transfer case (it had a divorced Rockwell in it), and having the driveshafts reworked.
The truck was a daily driver for a short time untill I blew up the SB 400 with Tuned Port Injection.
About the same time I started playing around with the Military CUCV's (Uncle Sam's version of our trucks). I got into the CUCV's big time and have owned 17 of them in the last 7 years.
This step side has been sitting inside at my friends work building since the day the motor blew up 6 years ago.
Hopefully this is the year I get this truck back on the road.
