I'd like to see you and pops paint it, drop something cool in it with some boost. Those trucks go for bank, youll never ever lose money on that truck at that price.
wow man this is really impressive i didnt know how lowering a truck worked but now that i watched the video completely paying attention to every step its very understandable thanks man
I just bought a single cab 2wd Colorado yesterday and ordering a lowering kit and wheels/tires tomorrow. I have a lifted K5 Blazer so I figured I needed a slammed mini truck to balance things out.😂
Man I’ve been wanting to lower my ford ranger but it’s got torsion bar suspension in the front. Gotta find an XLT with the coil spring front suspension
my 96s odometer didn't work (speedo did) either when I got it... it was just a fuse. my 92 had neither speedo or odometer, was the signal wire from the speed sensor on the top of the 3rd member . ran new wire to the abs test lead and we good
I did djm 3/4 drop with the beams. Did get 3 in the front and only 3 in the back. Would like it a little lower in the back, but it doesnt take much to squat the rear end on this 92
Had the same wheels too. Ended up putting some 18 inch steel wheels off a later model camero with some wheel adapters. Fit pretty well could be wider in the back. Also threw the center caps in the drill press and drilled out the bow tie emble and put some cobra caps in
Yup, lowered my 01 RCSB Silverado 3/4. Same crap - "Your truck is worthless now." It's easier to get in and out of, and with the helper bags - I still dragged my ECSB 4WD 2500HD home with it last year. I heard - tint, wheels... but not boost. That 300 six needs a turbo... just sayin'
Before you get it aligned you can get did eccentric bushings for the top ball joint to help get camber and caster in spec . Although idk how much they can correct after a lowering.
@SniderTron3000. If you are looking for a 4.9 for that email me. I have a recently rebuilt one (less than 11k). Runs superb. I have a 408 cleavor going in it’s place.
Hey man quick question. I got a 5.3 fresh rebuild with some ported 709 head and ls6 valve springs with a btr stage 4 truck cam. Just had my 4l60e rebuilt. With the cam setup I’ve heard I should run around a 3200 stall. I was wondering what budget brand you would recommend. I was originally planning on a circle D but I remember a long while back you recommended one from Jeggs. If anyone else has some suggestions or experience I’d be happy to hear it
I feel that. Motivation is hard to come by lately. Just go out there with the goal of getting just the front done. Once the front is done, the rear ain't too bad to do
Why not run some newer 6 lug f150 wheels I like the newer f150 factory wheels plus everyone pulls them off to upgrade so you can get a nice new low mileage set for $500 or less
@@SniderTron3000 I would just run adapter spacers, as long as they are hub centric they should be fine, Ive used them before with success and they are relatively cheap
I got a running and driving 94 F150 yesterday. Picking it up in 2 days to bring home. It's pretty low already, and streetable as is. Very excited.
One of the best trucks fs they look badass as hell
Also have an uncle with 750k kilos on it which translates to 466k miles
Hell yeah about time this thing gets some love! I vote on naming it red foreman
ark here. DAMN MAN I HAVEN'T HERD THAT GINGLE IN A LONG TIME taken me back to your old video's
I'd like to see you and pops paint it, drop something cool in it with some boost. Those trucks go for bank, youll never ever lose money on that truck at that price.
The shop is looking tight brother.
Papa Tron , We wanted to see you cut those U-Bolts off with the fireeeeee 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Lol
When I heard you swear I knew I'd e njoy rhe rest of the video 😂
A quick scuff n shoot, some old school billets, and it'll be perfect 👌👌
wow man this is really impressive i didnt know how lowering a truck worked but now that i watched the video completely paying attention to every step its very understandable thanks man
Looks 🔥 I’m trying this on mine in a few weeks
Love that truck!!!!
Man looks just like my truck. Good times
Hey put lightning wheels on it
Cool video. Just bought a 90 f150. I'm looking at doing this as well
How about Redford (Red ford)
Ol Redford
Paint it!!
Do you have a link for the lowering kit? Thanks for the video!! Looks awesome!!

Papatron in the mf house..
About damn time
Looks 10 times better!
Thank you for the video I am hopeful to put his on my 91 f150
GEN 2 lightning wheels! Get some used, ream out the holes a tad and use flat washer type lug nuts
FYI man relocate rear brake lines if you bottom out the frame cuts brake lines I found out hard way and do under bed c notch for extra travel
Nice looking truck
You can also get some shock extenders for the rear - that will help keep them at a better angle

I like your jokes. I'm going to subscribe 🗿
I love the amount of sketchy shit your dad does.
The jack one the leaf spring was a new one for me. 😂😂
Definitely looks better lowered.👍💯

Thank you for your knowledge very informative
I lowered my 1996 Chevy K1500 4”s and my 2008 suburban 2.5”. So much easier to get in and out! And the handling…
Looking good 👍👍
Funny I put coilovers on my corolla. Long story short I broke one now I'm doing lowering springs while watching this video. Nice timing lol
what is the lowest you can drop your truck without cutting frame?
I had a 95 f150 dropped I bought it that way and loved that truck then I got married and sold it but now I'm on the hunt
I did djm 3/4 drop with the beams. Did get 3 in the front and only 3 in the back. Would like it a little lower in the back, but it doesnt take much to squat the rear end on this 92
I almost did a 3/4 but thought the rear might not be low enough
@@SniderTron3000 id been super happy with 3/4 but it didnt do that
Had the same wheels too. Ended up putting some 18 inch steel wheels off a later model camero with some wheel adapters. Fit pretty well could be wider in the back. Also threw the center caps in the drill press and drilled out the bow tie emble and put some cobra caps in
Glad this is the video I watched cause I have a 92 f150 and I’m thinking about dropping it
Are you running Stock shocks and I beams in the front?
You still might want to do drop arms in the front or it's going to start going through a lot of front tires I beams don't have a lot of adjustability.
Yeah, I've got to order adjustable bushing for it
Clean bro this what i wana do find a single cab silverado slap a 6.0ls and a bottle and we hurting feelings just cant decide 2wd or awd
My wallet prefers 2wd lol
Like cleetus buyin all the crown vics now these prices will go up now!! 😂😂😂😢 looks good bro!
Lol obs trucks are already getting insane
What kit would you recommend for a 95 ram 1500 single cab
@SniderTron3000 where you get that kit and the drop that give you at the end please?
Im about to do flip kit and coil springs on my 99 silverado ext cab 5 speed

What kit did you go with?
Before you get it aligned you can get did eccentric bushings for the top ball joint to help get camber and caster in spec . Although idk how much they can correct after a lowering.
Yeah, I need to order some. It "only" has 3 degrees of camber right now, so if it can get it to 1 degree then its good enough for me lol
It's A truck A shop truck. 😅😂
Where do I get that kit
What size shocks did you put on it ? Just stocks ? Help I’m doing the same to my 1994 ford f150
Yeah, I reused the stock shocks. It was supposed to be temporary but they're still on the truck lol
link to order please
Method makes some good 17” 5x5.5
Yeah, I looked at some of their wheels
Please put the lightnings wheels on it and a roll pan will have it looking sexy!!!!!!! An I'm a chevy guy an I like it
Which eBay seller is this kit from?
I bet it handles better already.

For a 60e, go with Circle D. They're great. The jegs ones are for TH350/400's
What drop kit is this? I have a 1990 xlt lariat long bed that I wanna drop.
Red Ryder
Man I’ve got a drop kit sitting in the garage for my obs. Just can’t seem to find the motivation to get it done
I feel that. Motivation is hard to come by lately. Just go out there with the goal of getting just the front done. Once the front is done, the rear ain't too bad to do
Crown Vic swap the front suspension?
If it was more of a performance truck, then maybe. But the stock setup is fine for me
Do you miss the Ls swapped suburban?
Nah, not really. It was fun at the time though
let's see a turbo on the shop truck
What about yoke depth before and after at the transmission?
It barely changed
I’m thinking about swapping a foxbody tubular front end on to 67 F-100….
That would be rad as hell
@@SniderTron3000 hopefully it works….🤞🤞
What’s up with the s 10?😧
It's a buddies that we were throwing an EFI system on
I need to lower the s10. She sits too high.
Now put some wide wheels on it and let it rip tater chip
Who’s s10?
A buddies. We were installing an Aces EFI system on it
Why not run some newer 6 lug f150 wheels I like the newer f150 factory wheels plus everyone pulls them off to upgrade so you can get a nice new low mileage set for $500 or less
This truck is 5 lug, so I'd have to convert it to 6 lug. At that point I might as well just convert it to 5x4.5 and have a huge wheel selection
@@SniderTron3000 I would just run adapter spacers, as long as they are hub centric they should be fine, Ive used them before with success and they are relatively cheap
