Re: Rat Cart?
Take the front springs and swap em front to back, put a 2 inch block between the rear springs and the axle and wahlah....slammo! Oh yeah, we want pics.

So put the front springs in the rear of the cart? Or just flip the spring around so the front is at the back of the front axle? Where would you get said blocks? What wheels will fit front and rear?

Re: Rat Cart?
tried that. there is no clear cut, cut and dry, post about lowering a txt. im not bagging it, dont want air shocks, dont want to cut spring mounts. if inverting the front springs and adding blocks in the rear is all it takes then i'll be doing it tonight. i just want to slam the front, rake hot rod style.

Re: Rat Cart?
Just change position of the front spring...not to the rear of the cart. And if you just wanna drop the front don't worry about blocking the rear. This will lower the front about 2 inches and maintain the regular height in the rear. You looking for just a raked look, rear a bit higher than the front?

Re: Rat Cart?
Too bad you don't have a fake plastic motor to replace the front cowl and make it look like a ratted t- bucket. That would be hot. Fat a$$ whitewalls and some baby moons.

I know right. Im going to try and pull off the baby moon look, just gotta find the right wheel. I have a full paint/metal fab/powder coat shop at my disposal. This should get interesting. How about some fake side pipes with glass packs?
