ok here is the build of my dream truck. its been a dream of mine for the past 15yrs to own a 88-98 4dr s/b 5lug 1500 chev or gmc. i got this truck 4yrs ago. it was stripped and slamed 6/8 on 18s left for dead in some guys backyard. so i got it for cheep, drove it home, and slowly started saving money and buying parts over time. ive been around air ride for a long time but i just couldnt afford to get personaly involved till 5yrs ago when i got my first bagged truck and i have been buyn bagged rides or baggin stock rides teaching myself as i went while getn advice from many people along the way. so this is my first bodydrop ever and im open to peoples comments (its a forum lol) so let the love and hate begin

thanx for looking

Looks pretty good... My only worry is in the front where the frame is spliced.. you made it very angular which xould cause stress cracks because that spot takes loads of pressure... Instead of coming straight down to meet the 2x4 I wish made it a smoother transition and made that area with less stress risers..
