Scott, the December issue of Truckin' has a complete story on the world's
first body dropped 2000 silverado.Might check that out.I am going to be
helping a friend body drop his custom S-10,and if it goes well, we will be
doing Brad's '99 silverado maybe later next year.I'll let you know how it
goes.I personally wouldn't do it because it basically puts the structural
integrity of the truck into a questionable state.I hope you are planning on
a show only truck! HTH,

DML:
Has anyone ever performed a BODY DROP? I can do the suspension etc, myself,
but looking at Mike D's Project, I think I want my body lower than the frame
will allow it to go. Can I just use a cutting wheel, and remove the cab
mounts? What about the bed box, and the front clip? I am serious, so I would
appreciate serious responses, such as the ones from Mike.
LOL!!!
Any Ideas how I can get my non-daily driver as low as possible, yet retain
some decent camber?
Mike D, if I were to use the Lower control arms and spindle combo, where
would my scrub line be sitting on 17" rims, and some 40 series Z rubbers?
