Where is this graphic? I'd like to have a look.

You now have Devin's 2 cents. Here's mine: Trucks lowered to the point
they can't go in or out driveways, & have to creep over speed bumps are
BEYOND STUPID. As a general rule, they don't ride as well as other
trucks,
and have no ability to carry anything, including the extra 10 lbs we all
put
on with age.
The graphic of your truck's proposed stand is about as low as you want
to
go.
One of the things I like about trucks is that they are PRACTICAL. One
can
carry people and cargo. If you want something "really low," get one of
those Rice Rockets and beat your kidneys to death. Oh, yeah, and wave
as
you slide under my truck.

I say go lower with the truck Steve. The front bumper should be no more
than
1" from the pavement. You can forget driveways, but boy does it look
cool.
And keep it old school too, none of this IFS stuff, or V8s for that
matter.
Severe dropped straight axle and a built 6 with lots of carbs...
My 2 cents
