Lowered Longbeds?

[MX425]

Anyone on here rocking a lowered longbed? I plan on lowering mine in the near future and was wondering if anyone has done the same. It's a ec/lb so I'm thinking it will be pretty unique to get it closer to the ground. I'm going to go with the mcguaghys kit most likely, heard mostly good things about it.

there was a long bed threa on here awhile back. do a search for it. mostly lifted but i am sure there was some lowered ones. i would love to bag my 92 rclb. long beds for the win.

You see 'em from time to time. I had a friend with an '89 RCLB that had a 4/6 on it years ago. I always liked it.

You'll have something unusual since most lowered guys go for the shortbed, but longbeds can be cool too.

Not an extended cab but is a long bed. 2/4

I think there was a member named Ikon or something similar that had a pink/black two tone RCLB that looked pretty good (i actually didn't mind the pink on his truck). It was bagged but i don't know if it was body dropped. It was sitting pretty low though.

Don't worry about dropping an RCLB, i think that these trucks look good in every single direction you can take them. They look good as a street truck, lifted truck, work mule, as a dually hauler (not so much in RCSB), etc. It's the classic truck proportions.

I think he was gonna repaint it but i haven't seen him around here in the last little while, so he might be completely gone from FSC. I'm not sure though.

Most have the short beds but I've seen a half dozen or so long beds between here & there that looked pretty sweet lowered. I'm a fan of having & doing things a little different so I say **go for it** if that's what you really want to do.

Is that a 4wd? What kit did you use. It looks great!

2wd. 2" Belltech spindles, stock springs front and back, DJM hangers and shackles in back, Edelbrock IAS shocks in front with DJM shocks in back. Thanx! I also used that spring donut from Belltech to raise the driver front.
