| Are you sure he didnt just cut out the fender wells to let it sink down more? Or does it show the work? That would be some serious work to be ddone for the body drop  Looks good either way  | |

| I say hats off for the custom work,but it's not my style. I've never been into the ground scrapin',tire/rim tuckin' thing. To each his own though. Also,...if that's all you get from a body drop on an xb then it's a waste of $$$ to me. A body drop should set it on the ground completely. You could probably get the same results by cutting out the wheel wells,air,and bigger wheels sucked in...offset, and camber. I've been into custom trucks since cut coils and blocks with 15's & 50's were the s*** (mid- late 80's) but lost interest when bd's on 20+ rims all tucked in the fenders became the norm and everyone had the same basic ..me too.. mods done by someone else. Boring IMO. I don't mean to insult those that like it though,we all have our own tastes and can respect each others opinions. Do it because you like it..,.not because everyone else likes it! I just saw the other pics and it's awesome work,love the flames!! I just hope they're not done inside cause if you drive that you'll get some serious exhaust fumes...bye bye brain cells!!! lol And good luck driving it. Looks like a "trailer queen" to me.

| (enter bowing smiley here) HOLY CRAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I don't think that's a daily driver, as the road noise and the inside would constantly be dirty from that gapping hole in the floorboard All In all, me likey likey. Homeboy must drink alot of mountain dew, cuz thats EXTREME!!!!!!!!!

| Oh, and its not done. I don't know if the hole will be there when it is. But he said he still had to do some more reinforcing in the front and install the air ride in the back, among other things.
He also shaved and relocated the tag and shaved the taillights:  | |
