Before and After
Just got the lift installed on the 88'. Leveled it out good like i was hoping...
It was racked out something fierce. Get this...4" lift in ONLY the front and it now sits level.
Next comes some 33x12.5x15 m/t of some sort and the built 400/c6/205.

Because i've wanted this bodystyle/shortbed for a long time. Picked this one up for $1000 ZERO rust. And now I have plans for it...such as the tires, nasty 400, and paint it black here this summer.
I did find a low milage 400/c6 from a 72' Lincoln for $250 that could be transplanted in the beater. But thats another matter....

Looks too high in the front to my eye...
I like a bit of rake, then it levels out when you mash the skinny pedal

Looks good, and nice find for a 1K and no rust. I was happy when I managed to find my 95 with no rust. ND salts the crap out of the roads, and since its winter time here more than summer, it kills trucks. In town, I saw a 2002 Duramax with rusted out rear fenders that I could fit fingers through.

Keep us posted, and post pics when you go tear it up!
Personally I like a little rake better than a **** sagging look, but doesn't mean I don't like the truck b/c of it...just mine will be level or have a little rake.
