10/02/2002 Blog: "Old Mazda Pic"

Just found a pic of the mazda when we were building it up, well more like down ;)hehe.



Notice how much lower the cab is compard to the bed. So if you dont know what a bodydrop is, the picture pretty much explains it. A bodydrop is when the cab/body is lowered below or even with the bottom of the truck frame. If you take a look at a stock truck the body will always be higher than the bottom of the frame, unless its BodyDropped. The way we did it was to cut the floor out, which freed the body and then the floor stayed same place while the body was just lowered. May sound simple but theres alot of shit that needs to be done, for example relocate parts, cutting, welding, grinding, measuring,etc....Shit I wanna start working on it again!!!!

I feel very proud of this truck since I know for a fact that this is the first bodydropped truck on Oahu. We built it in the summer of 2000.....notice I said Oahu instead of Hawaii, reason being is because my bro was talkin' with a guy in Maui that was doing the same thing. Until next time scrape hard and avoid the Speed Bumps...
