lowering on a budget
« on: July 01, 2003, 02:17:00 AM »
hello, i need to know the cheapest possable way to drop my truck as much as possable.....heating coils? cutting coils? removing leafs from the rear?i am looking for about a 7" drop in the rear and about 5" up front

please dont flame me for asking about cutting or heating coils, i just want to ghetto lower my truck until i can afford my airbags, and i dont care about how it will ride because it will rarley be driven until bags are installed
