    Anyone have LowRider Trucks?

    I want to lower my truck down and paint it black, with lots of chrome. I was just wondering if any of you had done this.

    Flat black would look good on an older lowrider truck, with lots of chrome and a titanium scrape plate on the rear, so when your going down the road you see a shower of sparks

    Im with you there, I love my trucks to be lifted, my dad used to have an old 71 ford with a 410 ci mercury motor in it, ridin on 44" swampers, but some people enjoy the lowriders. Which isnt bad as long as it is a 2wd

    ya mines a 2wd. I dont know, what do u think a 92 dakota would look good with. i say some alum rims, low profile tires and some kind of black paint job, flat or shiney.
    The thing i like about this truck is it doesnt have a pussy little 4 banger motor, it's got something that'll move it. im sorry to all you guys that like those nissan trucks and othere crappy imports, i just cant stand them.
    do any of you got some pics of them?

    i attached a couple of my truck, arnt those wheels discusting?

    looks sik kasey, heres the show truck and the mud truck


    the Panel has a custom frame we welded up from the big square Lamp posts from NYC,
    new tires on the Panel, if you have a lifted showtruck and want good tires and you only drive on the street id suggest the Trxus tires that are on there, there real nice, also were puttin together a truck now, we have a frame a 383 stroker and a transfer case, up on 50 inchers, were lookin for an old, fat fendered ford body.....it all started with a transfer case and we had to put it to use lol

    and with your dodge, what kind of motor does it have?, yah, any 2wd truck or small size pickup deserves to be in the weeds, no doubt, i wouldnt go cray on rims, id sray at like 18s or below, but im jus not big ito that whole "bling bling" thing, itd look good black, but you should go for a varient of a red or blue thats real dark, almost to the point of being black, jus so its not the same as a lot of other trucks unless you dont mind flat black, then jus go to Home Depot and spend $40 on flat black Enamel paint and start sprayin....

    those are two of the neatest things i have ever seen dude...i cant wait to build up a truck like that....and yes: any 2wd most likely does deserve to sleep w/ the weeds (or under them 50 inchers )

    hehe..."big trucks, fast trikes, and hot chicks" what could be better??

    ....uhhhhh........ a couple 30 packs, big trucks, fast trikes, and hot chicks? lol
    yah the one on the right usually has no body on it, its one of the old race trucks so it has a full roll cage....

    i would say make your truck a PreRunner(Baja truck...) truck but that all depends on your fabrication skills, id just drop it and put some nice rims under it probly if i had it tho, depends on how the suspension is setup up front on those....out back you can make your own 3 link... but it aso costs a lot of money even if you do have the fab. skills, cuz you need all the tubing, fuel cell, long travel coilovers, welder, pipe bender, lathes, dyes....yah i guess its a lil too costly and hard for the average person.... just a thought....im currently lookin for a ranger to make a prerunner truck out of, and they are pretty much just as good 2 wheel cuz you dont use 4 wheel that often in a prerunner

    I just put this together on the kal tire website...

    If you're wondering, the website is kaltire.com. you can put some rims on you vehicle

    I dont know if i like these rims, i think i like the blue paint job better, except i would want it darker.
