Re: easy ways to lower a rodeo... Please help!!!!
i don't think you'll get much help on lowereing this truck...not many who own this truck do this sort of thing--we tend to raise them.
you're going to have to cut/weld/ fabricate any kind of safe way to lower this truck. anything else is too dangerous and shouldn't be considered. having said that--it's not impossible--it can be and has been done. i've seen a fgew pics on here and on the web (google it). it gives the truck an odd look, in my opinion.

Re: easy ways to lower a rodeo... Please help!!!!
Well, in his defense, it IS a 4x2 Rodeo - but still, I just hate to see the Rodeo's in any drive, 4x4 or 4x2 lowered. They look goofy.
How 'bout trading it for a Subaru or something that IS lowered? I know that's not the point, but maybe it be cheaper in the long run and less eary then lowering a suspension that's not meant to be lowered.

yeah, agreed that lowering should not happen to a 4x4.

that being said, i think it would be cool to be able to lower and rasie your vehicle to suit the terrain, lower at high speed, jacked to crawl.... ![]()
