Nice color combo and paint scheme.

How about providing a lil bit more detail on the "custom drop"? And more pics, please!

I love red with a cream color. great job! I'm not a huge fan of lowered 2wds usually, but I really like the way you did this one. Very classy. I would love to own that, two thumbs up from me!

Yeah this is the first one I have ever lowered....it took me till it was done not to lift it back up and make a prerunner out of it. But it looks and drives amazing. I have a little camber to the front tires due to the fact that I just cut the springs but it isn't bad, not too concerned with it because its just a cruiser not a dd. The rear is lowered by flipping the the rear hanger and putting some drop shackles on it.

I've never been a fan of how a 2wd truck looks but yours will be an exception. Looks good! I also agree the paint scheme works well!
