It's a functional drop. Hotchkis suspension with Energy Suspension bushings all the way around.

Guess I just don't get it.

Bernd, isn't/wasn't your Dak LIFTED? Does this mean that you're converting to "street-truck" status?

yea it looks like bernd is getting into high-g cornering more than running over rocks and dirt. should look tight. i have never seen a lowered dak painted driftwood.

All of my other vehicles were lowered for handling. This is the first one that was lifted (obviously...it's a truck). ;)

1976 Ford Capri - Ford Motorsports Suspension (Not the Mercury Capri...the imported Capri with the 2.6L V6)
1976 Camaro - 'Vette Products Fiberglass Monoleaf Suspension

Since the engine has been running really strong with the lift kit, I decided to put her back ont he ground and see what she really can do. :)
