    Sweet! We just c-notched our c10 over on our channel. We went bolt-in but love how you DIY-ed yours. Nice to finally see it being lowered.

    My dad and I built two trucks just like this ones on my channel this lowering method is awesome and to help the welds adhere to the thicker material try preheating it next time even a torch will work fine, love the content !

    Just installed a an axle flip kit purchased online for my f100 and think i royally screwed up by welding the brackets on backwards. They came with two holes on each bracket and apparently are supposed to be mounted in the offset hole to set rear end back 3/4 inch. Now that i see you used stock 1 hole brackets im thinking i might actually be ok just using the center hole which keeps everything in the original location???

    While driving my '78 Econoline, I saw a real low F go the other way... the front bumper was no more than 8 inches off the ground... It hadn't been painted, kind of ratty... but cool... I hope I see it again.
    I am seriously considering a '94 F-150... 6 cyl, 5 speed, highway geared rear...

I prefer a Ford and not a Chevy. That's not a negative statement just my preference but Chevy owners will call me a hater.
