Default Lowriders Anyone?

just sitting here wandering if anyone has, had, or wants to have a lowrider? i see alot of jacked up 4X4 trucks on here but not a single lowrider. i've had a few. i still have my first vehicle an 88 Astro lowrider. it had Hydrolics on it and that got old quick so i put the regular lowering kit back on. i've also had a 1984 Mazda B2200 with a 4/5 drop, 1989 Nissan Hardbody with a 3/4 drop, my current 1998 Expedition with a 2/2 drop, my current 94 Ranger with a 3/5 drop (awaiting airbags) and i'm debating on lowering my Dodge. anywho if anyone has had any lowriders let me know maybe there are more people out there like me....

Low Rider In Ohio = Sparks and ripping off of under carriage on the streets............ Pushing Snow in the winter

I had a friend who was cooking it down the high way and hit a big rock , the rock wedged under his oil pan and lifted the front tires off the ground he then preceded to go around and around and threw a ditch all because of a Rock ...

I think some of them look cool

back when i had hydrolics on my minivan i could let them down in the front and there was no more than 1/4" from the crossmember under the oil pan and the road. it makes a great road reflector removal tool. there are quite a few stretch's of road around here that don't have any reflectors anymore.

depends on how big a boy you are.... i remember one of the jobs i had at a pawn shop i saw a nice looking Mazda 626 4 door nice and clean car that had some nice looking wheels 17's or 18's like a gunmetal finish with a polished lip and the car was just barely tucking a slight bit of rim..... man that car looked awesome..... then all 4 300# plus people get out of it and there was easily 2 inches of clearance between the top of the tire and the wheel well arch......
