  • Planning to Body Drop your mini-truck? This video might help. It's not a How-to video, but does offer some advice that could help you with your Body Drop! It doesn't matter if it's a minitruck, full size truck or a Classic Car, the information is the same! But, Obviously this info comes the experience of body dropping the #Stupid Truck which is an '88 Long Bed S-10 that is V8 swapped with a static drop and a growing list of body modifications! Because Body Mods are AWESOME!!!

    I’m a bit behind but definitely like the videos. I body dropped my first truck with zero knowledge of what I was getting into. boy what a venture and it was my daily at the time. But a harbor freight welder and a couple buddy’s it got done ended up doing a stock floor full custom frame all new floor/firewall on another truck later in life now working on a crew cab dually hope you keep building and making videos

    “ Experience is a hard teacher because she gives the test first, the lesson afterward. ” - Vern Law. Saw this today Thought you might like it. Second thing. I was reading a bit on the subject. for your horizontal cuts if you leave a half inch you can overlap and cut and butt. I don't know if I'll ever body drop anything, but I've enjoyed the vids. I'm about to get into doing the rust repair on my 50 Shoebox Ford and still have a ton to do on my 74 Beetle (chop and section) see avatar.

    I was doing this 30yrs ago and I definitely agree with your assessment. Having done and driven both I prefer a stock floor drop just for the headroom. An s10 has a lot of vertical room so it doesn't matter as much as the import trucks. Your work looks good and it'll be cool to see it done.

    I love the content you provide. I was wondering why you only body dropped 1.5 inches.

    • @wrongwaygarage
      @wrongwaygarage  11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Suspension is a static drop. The only reason for the body drop was to hide the frame slightly. This truck was never intended to lay frame or lay body so there’s no need to for me to do a full body drop. ✌🏻

      @wrongwaygarage  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      My plasma cutter is the cheapest one I could get at the time. It does a great job at doing what it is supposed to. But, it seems to suffer from an operator error! The idiot running the plasma cutter can’t seem to cut lines quite as straight as he can with a cut off wheel!😂
