    I, like only a few posts, dont like them, but to each his own - I understand.
    I can appreciate the work that goes into them, but I can't really see why.

    Lowered 3/4, debadged, led tails, projector headlights with hids, billet grill, blacked out windows, painted front and rear bumper and grill shell. Inside, 4 crappy 15's, suede wrapped headliner and door panel inserts, alpine double din, few painted pieces inside, and every led is either blue or white.
    Nice, love seeing this thread blowing up with some sick trucks and other guys showing off their bagged trucks. I would love to see more people post pictures of lowered trucks hauling stuff, I've seen a thread before on another forum and it shut up a bunch of guys.

    It's the same as your typical frame set up except the frame is below the axle. So when the truck lifts the axle gets closer to the frame. It stops lifting when the bottom of the axle hits the frame. There are many trucks out there that have this type of set up. I'll have to find some more pictures.

    edit: it's called an underslung frame fyi

    Yeah it is stock floored 2.5" and the bed floor was raised to cover the step notch. Has some 265/35/22's on it now rather than the rubber bands in the picture so it looks more proportional.
