that's a nice ride. I like the paint job it makes it look real tough.

The boards will be coming off soon. Ieft them on because I have a prosthetic leg. Now it is low enough to get in and out of easily.

Looks great! I think it would look better w/o the running boards too.

Looks good. I did a 3/4 drop with DJM 3 inch spindles and their hanger and shackle kit. I don't have any of the body re-mounted yet to see how it looks. Did you do anything else to make yours any lower or is it just the 3/4? The height looks perfect for daily driving. What method did you use?

I went the inexpensive route with my drop. I used summit 3 inch drop coils and shackle and hanger from belltech. I also did 4 nitro drop shocks all the way around while I was uder it..  My dad had a helper spring in the rear so I removed that and one extra leaf. I still tow my brother in laws 19ft boat with no problems too.
