I cut the inner splash guard and pushed the bedside out to where I wanted it and where I thought it looked good. I could still roll the inner fender lip.

 

Nice. Is the inner splash guard welded? Did you re-weld it to hold the position?

 

Cool, never thought about cutting the inner splash guard....

 

Yes I Made a couple plates, I guess you could call them, out of 16 Guage metal and tacked them in place to hold them in position. I didn't fill the whole gap so I could reverse it later if needed.

 

Decided to get a snap of my truck with its freshly mounted semi center caps. Also went with a matte black cap to make the wheel seem alittle more one piece. It looks alittle more finished imo.

 

Looks awesome! How is your suspension set up?

 

Rear is done with DJM hangars and shackles, And a total of 3 leaf springs from each side pulled out( had a 7-8 leafs per side). And the front is cut a 1.5 coils. As soon as I can get some money saved up im going to order some djm beams.

 

 

Does anybody ever tow with these lowered trucks. Mine is a swb 74. Going to lower it with Djm beams and shackles. Might use helper air bags in the rear. Going to put a 460 in it. Wanting to pull my 16ft car trailer with my fox mustang or my 64 galaxie with it.

 

I don't tow with mine. Mine doesn't weigh much, don't know how it would do towing but if you had helper bags and proper rated tires, wheels and brakes I can't see why not.

 

I tow with mine, does just fine

 

I wonder if you have a stiffer rear spring Dave. My brother and I can sit on the tailgate of mine and looks to nearly bottom out. Mine is a short bed.

 

I don't tow anything very heavy, lol. Have hauled yard debris on my 18ft flatbed.

 

My '04 F150 is lowered and I tow with it all the time. I do have air bags in it for when I use my car hauler or travel trailer. People that say that lowered trucks can't tow have no idea what they are talking about.

 

So the Djm kit is better than the aim airbag it kit?
