My F-150 stock floor body drop/custom truck build


Recommended Posts

tell Mitch, Rich from Fl says sup..mang.

and on a side note ...a 2 link with a pan hard bar set up correctly wont move the axle more than a quarter of a inch from center through out its rang of motion. but in a true 2 link the rigidness of the set up will eventually tear something up especially with the 6s your running. not my opinion its a fact..

Got another small update, doesn't look like much has been done but there has been a lot of work in the past couple weeks.

Body has been mounted to the new frame:

Shows the new frame above the rocker panel, it is going to lay out hard!

The rear end is back in after being narrowed to make room for the 26's

That's it for this week, they are taking it to Turkey Drag next weekend and have promised that it will be nearly finished so I should be able to get some pictures with it back together at the show.

i like this. lookg great. i dont like the choice for the 26's tho. seems like that design is everywhere, very common. but not so common on a slammed pick up tho. so im sure they will look great on there all layed out.

an where is a shop bagging a truck right for $2500,does that include parts or just labor?

I will. parts and labor. He said a basic air ride kit. That dosent include a rear link, f.b.s.s., 1 compressor, 5 gal tank. Thats about going rate for a basic install. You can find the entire basic set up for around $900. The money isnt in the air ride, its in getting travel beyond what your factory parts can do. Thats where links, and control arms come in play. And if you want it faster, or to move it more.

Were building a 56 crown vic 4 door, and it will be SFBD with a mid 80's s-10 clip, on the road and scraping for under $2000 in parts and materials. Frame is already built and under the car

99 suburban, ranger rover headlights, SS front bumper,roll pan with frenched tag, 2nd row delete,glassed dash..audio to come whenever I figure out what I want.

I'd like to see another regular cab F150 body dropped on 26's that is a daily driver, I think the last thing people are going to think about is seeing the same wheels on a stock truck. They are my favorite ones that were in my price range, maybe get something better after I get back from Afghanistan in about a year and a half.

Bagged trucks on 22's or 24's are common around here, you rarely see a body dropped truck being driven around let alone one on 6's, I can't wait to take it out and have fun.
