Hey guys! Im new to the whole truck scene. Honestly I hate trucks but ive always had a place in my heart for those Mini trucks =) Yes Im a honda guy and have a 93 accord all done up. I blew my motor so I needed a car asap so I got this for 300$

It's a 5spd. 130k miles has some smoke on startup. I guess it sat but runs pretty damn good. I gotta do some basic maintance work. but yeah

Here are some pictures. I havea few plans for it. Im going to get a new exhaust done becuase the one it has now rusted out after the cat i think so its loud as hell.

I wanna lower it hardcore. id bag it but im from Massachusetts and I don't know anyone that could help me and I don't want to pay an arm and a leg to have a local shop do it whos never done this work before.

So i need some help with lowering blocks etc. I wanna go as low as possible.

Help me! im me on aim- poo1side
Ill get new pics up later

whats up bro. welcome to the site. nice mileage. check out my pics. i am running 4" blocks with the 2 middle leafs pulled, 3" lower control arms with the torsions cranked about an inch. if i were you i would go with the 3" blocks and pull the 2 middle leafs. i started a subject under the suspension section about the lowering blocks, check it out.

I used blocks before, I like mono leafs. Of course you can use blocks as well at the same time.
Drop shocks help a LOT, and I would suggest a little bit of torsion adjustment.
Drop spindles are expensive, but they are a great way of staying legal and gaining a few inches too. If ya dont wanna spend that kinda moola and if ya feel like getting larger rims you can flip your front ball joints (spindles are set up to do that for you) you may want to shave down your bump stops to increase travel.

A body drop is a good way to loose inches if ya got skills with a welder.

Check out the suspension section of the forum for tech with pics.

you can find some decent amount of mini-truckers in ma and ct i know of a couple that may be willing to help you out if you seriously want to bag the truck - but help don't come cheap usually the trade off is beer but some money helps - i highly recomend takin the elephant ear mirrors off and getting the upper door mirrors that have a chrome plastic on them . And then stand down them doors where the old mirrors were and prime it before you get your first winter snow looks like its surface rust i 'm bettin you can sand it down and prime it and it will be fine .


welcome to mbs . btw nice rear bumper be nice for draggin haha .
