and how does the truck sitting high in the front and low in the back useful? I can't stand a truck that is low in the back, they look like crap.......guess you have to be from the west coast to appreciate something truly ugly.

most guys do them half assed here. they throw on flares and leave the suspension stock . it is the "bro-runner"

imo a pre runner truck done correctly is a blast. ride in one i guarantee you wont look at them the same. riding in one for the first time you will **** yourself on how smooth huge bumps are.

i will say the nnbs truck with flares just dont work for me . the 99-06 look the best.

they are all running MAZZULLA kits besides the gray bone yard truck. I know you probaly dont have 10-15k to spend so maybe a simple cst spindle will do for you Pic shown

as for this could be Manny different things. linked vs leafed suspension how your shocks are valved, weight of truck ect,, I would be happy to answer and questions. I once was into the street seen with a bagged truck and I got into prerunners 5 years ago and fell in love with the fabrication and running pinned out in the dirt skipping over 4 foot woops was like ridding in a Cadillac

If you do your truck like the last one posted you'll not only be a noob talking to ghosts but you'll also be a poser spending half the money for the looks of a prerunner with none of the performance advantages; prerunner builds are an all or nothing deal.
