Re: 3 1/2 in. BD on 24s!!

that green truck was in another thread. there's a dip where the front wheels are and the hood bends up a little if you look at it. why else do you need 4 hood pins. it gives you enough play to lift up just enough. now i'm not doubting the OP cause i think he can pull it off, i'm just talking about that green one.

Re: 3 1/2 in. BD on 24s!!

no but it does get difficult to read misspelled words and trying to figure out what someone actually meant. I hope you can get your truck to lay on the 24's, I just don't see it happening without raising the fenders. even if you can't, make sure you upgrade your brakes. I don't see how you'd be able to stop with those heavy ass cast wheels.

Re: 3 1/2 in. BD on 24s!!

why not extend the rockers? Its been done before, a combo of that and pie cutting the fenders may still look proportionate. thats probably about the only way to do it without pie cutting the fenders soo much it looks retarded, i guess you could always reverse body section the truck but thats a shit load of work.
