Cheers mate! Well, hopefully I can inspire some because I ain’t having kids! Haha
Hell yeah bro!! Adding the globes and deleting the running boards looks great 👍😎 I'm partial to the dent sides,both lowered or lifted, good job 👍🇺🇸
Wheels look great
New rims look sweet 👍
Lucky you lowered the front. If the front is too high, your fuel use goes up heaps because you’re driving uphill all the time. Globes look awesome, mate. 😂👍
Great transformation. Lovin the look.
Love the Globe mags, and the lowered truck looks mean, well done Mark.
Love the look of the mags really suits the truck
Always going for the tuff look.. that's killa.
The new rims are sweet, keep up the good upgrades mark
Keep the Redwalls! They look super slick! Suspension done Elizabeth style 🤣🤣
The globes & red walls look awsome, really suits the truck👍👍
Great stuff mate " good to see some more content coming... Cheers from Bill
Truck looks killer dropped and on the mags 👌👌

Red lines and globes.😎😎😎😎
Go with the Globes mate those red walls really finish them off👌
The new wheels look better man. The red lines on the tires gives good color contrast. Nice work over all. Thanks for sharing.
The globes look surprisingly nice. Getting rid of those side steps makes all the difference too 👍

Looks great. Always leave a bit of height with cutting coils. After a week of driving they usually come down another 3/4"

Effin great mate Performance challenger. Noice rims
It needs skinny tires on steel rims to look tough Mark
Awesome loved this for future work on my 78, if u plan to do a little on brakes i got new rotors slotted before i put them on. It felt better but once i replaced all the rubber brake lines with braided, the pedal firmed up noticeably. Thanks for the great content cheers.

Looks 110% percent better now, the globes look schmick
Globes look tidy, but still holds that rat rod look with the patina ect
Looks good mate I’ve got the same model 76 I’m lowering soon where did you get rear lowering kit from
Definitely the globes with red walls. The only thing I’’d be concerned about it when you tow or load up re the rear tyre clearance.

yeah i gotta assess that once im on the road
The globes and redwalls look good mate, gives it a tourer sporty look...I must say tho the black rims and patina paint look TOUGH In a mad max kinda way suits it being a big Brutus style truck...also please brother use axle stands, Did I spot you underneath the sill panel with no stands and rear jacked up? All in all keep up the work love the channel

Good call mate! I usually alllllways use stands, but in this case I was slack.. but as you can see, it was only because the car was only up an inch and I could actually fit under without the car jacked up anyhow.. thanks for you concern mate! Cheers

I’ve never had a problem with it mate, I can’t imagine it makes any difference, hardly heats up 1/4 of the coil if that. Trucks driving really good now!
