nice!!!! y no bodydrop?

There are a few reasons im not body dropping it. #1 being that the datsun suspension on big wheels will no get that much lift. #2 its going to be my daily. After this one gets finished im going to build another one body dropped on 20's with a toyo front clip and rx7 rear.

word up dwight! Looks supa fly.

Thanks for all the compliments guys!!!

that truck is so badass... but the ONLY thing i would change is, whose name the title is in thanks your the best

I just realized i didnt have very good pictures of my rear setup posted. So i snapped some quick pics and figured id put them up.

ooo, thats cool! just curious. i diffently wanna see the rx7 rear on the next one. im currently researching this for my bronco 2 build here soon....

an rx7 is pretty wide and a datsun well is not lol that will be a tight fit with real short axles, not sure if you will get much travel out of it

thats kool I just bought one for 300 dollars and it is in good condition. cant wait to start on it

My first piece of advice, swap the front suspension. Go with a toyo clip, i wish i had. Ill deff be doing it to my next one so i can body drop it.

AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
