Ride will be more firm, but I wouldn't say it harsh. Alignment has never been a problem using coils or spindles unless you have an extreme drop. Using spindles in some instances, it may not be possible to run the stock wheels, since the wheel is moved up, hence the rim can come in contact with the lower control arm. Using lowering blocks, you need to watch for the "scrub line" which is if you were to get a flat tire, the rim should still be on the road, not the ends of the u-bolts. I had lowered an '83 S10 using spindles and lowering blocks. Wasn't telling you I was doing it, just thinking. but just got done taking a statics class (school for the semester as well), so brain is a little screwy.Anyway. Maybe it was a stupid idea to ask about lowering. saw one stupid look TUNDRA on the road today, a 2wd extended cab with a big brushguard with a winch. I almost ran into one with my sonoma the other day.Īlso. Although I am Asian and it seems like Asians get this impression from others, I don't particularly like pimping an accord or any car. But why would you need the a 4x4 in the south (just for show. Really like the HD's, but I don't think it will fit in the garage. Like I said before, I haven't decided what to get when I get out of college, which is in about a couple of years. ye, anyway, I agree a slammed truck is just stupid.
LOWERED OBS CHEVY MODS
However, if the mods do nothing but for show, then I may just settle leaving the suspension stock and get some aftermarket tire and wheel combination or get something like the new trailblazer or envoy (or, god forbid. Also, figuring I'm studying to be a Mechanical Engineer (like to take things apart, hehe), I would like to do the mods myself. I have thought about installing airbags, but the cost is too great. But mostly, the truck would be used for commuting to and from work after I graduate from college in a couple of years. However, I still hope to use the truck as what god intended a truck to be, to be able to haul an occassional load. Though a 2/3 or 2/4 inch lowering of the truck is my main thinking, I hope to get anti-roll bars or sway bars as well as some aftermarket tire and wheel combination and a host of other mods.
Hey all, I really like the look of a lowered truck (though not one that is slammed to the ground), and would probably be safer to drive since the center of gravity is lower compared to stock.
