So everyone loves the GMC Syclone and Typhoon, but somehow this is sacrilegious?!?! Great work guys!!! Glad to see something other than another cookie-cutter lifted 4x4!!
Everyone loves a SyTy until they own one. You have to have Bill Gates money to have a nice one. Even a 4L80E swap is 5k+ and very few people still support the 4.3 turbo. A turbo L33 LS2 or LS3 is the only way I'd consider having another. So many parts are specific to that platform.
These older Chevy 4x4’s are perfect for lowering if you still want the four wheel drive to work. The independent front suspension works better with lowering than a solid axle would. My old friend in Alaska lowered her 1995 GMC Silverado 4x4 regular cab short bed back in 1996 after she bought it. She wanted something that looked similar to a 454 SS truck but that still had four wheel drive for the winter. Her truck looked great and in four wheel drive it would launch hard especially compared to a normal rear wheel drive truck. She got her lowering kit from BellTech way back in 1996.
this is exactly what people dont get on here. Some people still want practical vehicles that look good but cant get over the fact that someone lowers a 4x4 truck. I guess they forget about the silverado ss which is lowered from the factory.
@@StingrayJen I guess some people forgot that the SS was an overpriced, impractical, unpopular truck that barely sold enough to justify production, and is only driven by rich floridians that've never been off the interstate...

I'll race it in my off road truck and we'll see who wins lol. They made a 4x4 street princess and that's all they did but at least it looks better than most other street princesses, unfortunately it won't make it down my road, sad.
@@reaperasylum2163 Your truck is suited for your usage case, which is brilliant. For those rest of us that live more urban snow belt areas where there is only practical parking one vehicle (if you can find a space big enough to fit it in), this thing would be a brilliant choice. It's big enough to be useful, small enough to fit most places, and still practical to use in any condition. There are a couple other places that these still beautiful "street princess" would be much better than your off-road oriented machine. 3am bombs around curvy backroads while dodging deer. At track or auto cross events. Wouldn't it be hilarious to pass some Miata drivers in a truck around turns?! These trucks will be lighter too. Especially the wheels, tires, and suspension. If you know anything about physics, aerodynamics and fast vehicles in general, lighter and lower improves many things on the road. It should also be noted that given equivalent power and both trucks in 4 high, the lowered truck will be faster. Mind you, I'm not saying that they're better than yours, just better for different usage cases. Enjoy your truck and be proud of what you built!
@@storejoshuprite not gonna lie I agree with ya bud, that's why I'm not doggin it and why I called it a street princess instead of a pos lol, see urban drivers such as most would benefit from a truck like this cause it's practical, my situation however a car simply cannot drive down the roads I live on so I know for a fact a lowered truck wouldn't either and mine is an old farm truck with brand new engine and trans so it to has it's use. As far as racing, on street I know that truck would win, on dirt I got it. And that obs chevy does look good and I'm looking forward to next episode when they convert it to awd.
@@izzyplusplusplus1004 that's the thing they turned an off road machine into a damn street princess that can never see the off road side of things, so where the pavement ends their asses are on foot where as before there was no place it couldn't go. Now they and anybody else that does this being it's their truck they can do what they want but if it were me I'd just add lockers and haul ass, all of my trucks have been 4x4 because where I live no one can get there unless otherwise.
In the early 2000’s before a turbo was a big thing guys were taking 4WD trucks dropping them and making homemade turbo kits and they were fast as shit back in the day. Back then they were making 500HP and that much power back in the day was fucking quick.
So glad I seen this video i resenlty got a 2003 Silverado Z71 and had put off road rims on it 33x12.50r22 my tires but I didn't like that look so I sold them and I got 26 inch replicas on 295/30/r26 and first thing I heard big wheels on a 4x4 lol watching this made me feel better about my choice I don't want to be like every on else's trucks I want to lower it next. You guys make it look so easy little by little I'll have it how I want to look.👌
Man that's clean. Not everyone takes their truck offroad, and not everybody lives away from snow. The truck still has plenty of ground clearance and is still useful in town and on minor muddy roads
Funny... I raised my 89 K2500 when I bought it new... and just this past year... lowered it. Yep... I'm getting old. BUT, I think it looks awsome.. it's like a new truck all over again.. well.. It kinda is.. I did the the old frame off resto. GMT 400 Forever!
@@SirGuidemere91 stock - 1 inch all around via wheel and tire combo. 255/55r18 I believe. Only one tire in that size class E, and its Goodyear TA's. Ill dbl check in a couple days
@@hawkdsl oh gotcha. I thought you meant you lowered it lowered it. I have a 2” front and back right now but I bought this flip kit and will be installing soon.
This is how I'd do a daily k1500 and the tire set up this truck came with would definitely be a nice semi stock mudding truck. This trucks experienced best of both a mud truck with how it came and then turned into a true daily pick up in the end that gets that 4x4 to get ur ass end outta the snow when needed
I did a 5/8 on my 2wd 88’ and it was a pain in the front! Changed the spindle to a HD so I even had to swap the brakes. It was worth it in the end though!
Theodore Dowman thanks for that pretty obvious info, but I didn’t mention all wheel drive at all. I’m well aware that there is a big difference. 4x4 launches work pretty well on the street though. I understand if lowered 4x4’s are not you thing. Generally speaking they are not mine either. But I think it’s a cool build and could be a fast street truck. There are plenty of lowered late model 4x4 GM trucks with turbo LS’s that are fast and I like those builds. Anyway, to each his own....
@Rogue Mentality because I needed a truck asap and it was available in my price range, I also live in alberta canada where 6 months of the year is snow and ice so 4 wheel drive is a great thing. Just because I don't go off road doesn't mean I don't use 4x4 lol
David Attanasio, I had a '75 blazer with a 480 inch. Big block in it with big cam, heads, still couldn't keep up with two wheel drive pickups or cars. Twisted drive lines and destroyed my transfer case. In the real world things are not so easy as they are in your imagination. Of course if you were born into a wealthy family, anything is possible.
Have you seen Gingium's lifted rally Miata ? He had it raised and it was tall and two wheel drive . Now Gingium is gonna make his raised rally Miata AWD .
I'm super glad they did this build cuz im in love with this setup and it needs lots of aftermarket parts to make the Awd as good as the trackhawk. My dream truck is s10 size with whipple Ls 10speed awd.... A truck that performs like gymkahana
Regardless of when this was aired or uploaded... 4X4s and AWDs are basically the same, just depends on the trans-axle gearing and the front diff. Meanwhile SS Trailebrazers, SRT8/Trackhawks (That Silver SRT8 Jeep that AZN from Street Outlaws has digs really hard on the street) not to mention the AWD EVs and 911s that fly to 60 in under 3.0secs.
I had a 95' Z71 extended cab shot bed and stock that truck bogged through everything I ever threw at it.. including a swamp that was like almost an 1/8th mile across and water was 3 feet deep and idk how deep the mud was but 4 low powered through no prob no stopping and backing up just straight through slow and torque'y
I know everyone says it ruins a 4wd to lower it and you should just get a 2wd well the thing is everyone wants a 2wd for that so when you can find one they cost more. For me I’m in the PNW and I am having a hard time finding a stock 2wd obs that hasn’t already been built but I can find 4wd all day in decent condition for under $2500. Plus I can obviously do 4wd launch’s and drive my street truck all year long. Of course my daily is 4wd and lifted so best of both worlds.
Truck looks good. I have basically same body style but mine is a 2013. I bought it new and haven’t done any mods. Couldn’t even get up the courage to drill holes for mud flaps.
Wish I could have gotten my hands on that Chevy truck. Lowering it isn't the way I would of done it. It looks great lowered but I would of left it alone it was a sharp looking truck the way it was. I would of done some upgrades on the drive train , engine and swapped it over to a manual transmission. Another awesome show guys keep up the good work and content enjoy the hell out of everything y'all do and happy New year
IF I planned on staying in Salisbury,MD I would think about lowering my 4x4 Ram but I will be moving to the Pennsylvania/New Jersey area in a few years so I will stay stock or maybe do a 2" leveling kit in the front because they have more snow and hills.
Wouldn't it make for sense or more practical to install an air suspension? Raise the ride height when offroading or mudding, then lower the ride height when traveling on regular roads. You get the best of both worlds, 1. By having the truck lowered, you get a huge improvement in the handling department by hugely reducing it's mass center of gravity which practically elimates any body roll, making the truck feel more fun and secured especially when you hit the canyon roads, you will be amazed at how safe and confident the truck will feel as you drive thru the curves at way faster speeds compared to stock ride height. 2. By being able to raise and lower the ride height, you won't lose any of the truck offroading capabilities.
hey look, its you! ruclips.net/video/vlliCz19Oxs/видео.html you must not live where it snows. thats a practical vehicle in Iowa, where you need 4x4 quite a bit in the winter.
The wheels look like the newer Sierra and Silverado wheels. Looks good! I was thinking about going this direction with my 2016 Sierra, they look pretty sick lowered. But here in NY state we get a little bit of snow and I don't wanna be plowing the streets lol
I understand the concept of making a full size Typhoon clone. I bought a GMC C3 in the early 2000's. It was a super nice truck with all wheel drive, not four wheel drive and handled pretty well. I've also thought a regular cab, short bed pickup can make a cool hot rod muscle truck. So if this guy drops in a built LSX motor and stick shift trans it would be super cool! Build a pro touring style truck out of it. Not sure how the driveline will hold up under big power though.
I have that trucks older brother. I wish I could get you guys to do the same to it. I have a 1985 K10 with a 6 inch lift, I would love to lower it like that.
i've always been curious if it was possible to lower a 4wd, and now i see its not that hard. it should launch like a rocket now and make a great drag truck for the street nicely done
This is bad ass. I’ve wanted to do this on a 92-96 4wd f150 but I don’t know how low you can get with the ttb and still have it align and function correctly. If you can’t get at least 3” lower it’s not really worth it to me/
Dope af I have a 91 obs with a 7.4 454 vortec motor and I have a 6 lug conversion on it and i also have a fake z71 sticker ppl always ask why would I lower a 4x4 not knowing it was a 2wd

@@droppedchevy630 i bet theyll ask 20k easy but looks worth it
I like the easy to get in/out height, and the secret 4wd to get out of mud or snow when needed. Best of both worlds for a daily driver.
Not what the lowering is for.. going to AWD I'm sure
So everyone loves the GMC Syclone and Typhoon, but somehow this is sacrilegious?!?! Great work guys!!! Glad to see something other than another cookie-cutter lifted 4x4!!

Yes they are😂 they sip gas like my uncle sips tequila and hes a drunk... about all they good for lol
It is quite interesting I've always wondered doing something like that with a k10 square body
Wouldn't it make for sense or more practical to install an air suspension? Raise the ride height when offroading or mudding, then lower the ride height when traveling on regular roads.
You get the best of both worlds,
1. By having the truck lowered, you get a huge improvement in the handling department by hugely reducing it's mass center of gravity which practically elimates any body roll, making the truck feel more fun and secured especially when you hit the canyon roads, you will be amazed at how safe and confident the truck will feel as you drive thru the curves at way faster speeds compared to stock ride height.
2. By being able to raise and lower the ride height, you won't lose any of the truck offroading capabilities.
Love it! Now I want one just like it.
“Aye bruh you tryna trade yo reps cuhh”
“Should’ve swanged them 6’s cuhh”
Next project, convert a CST Blazer into 2wd. With a v6. And body chop.
Bruhhhhhhh 😍😍😍😍 the wheel and model combo
Good job on taking a decent mudder to have fun in and make it totally useless.
hey look, its you! ruclips.net/video/vlliCz19Oxs/видео.html you must not live where it snows. thats a practical vehicle in Iowa, where you need 4x4 quite a bit in the winter.
Makes it not very good for having fun off road but put some power in it and it'll now be fun on road, especially from a dig.
The wheels look like the newer Sierra and Silverado wheels. Looks good! I was thinking about going this direction with my 2016 Sierra, they look pretty sick lowered. But here in NY state we get a little bit of snow and I don't wanna be plowing the streets lol
I understand the concept of making a full size Typhoon clone. I bought a GMC C3 in the early 2000's. It was a super nice truck with all wheel drive, not four wheel drive and handled pretty well.
I've also thought a regular cab, short bed pickup can make a cool hot rod muscle truck. So if this guy drops in a built LSX motor and stick shift trans it would be super cool! Build a pro touring style truck out of it. Not sure how the driveline will hold up under big power though.
I have that trucks older brother. I wish I could get you guys to do the same to it. I have a 1985 K10 with a 6 inch lift, I would love to lower it like that.
This would be so dope with big power and better shocks and coil overs in the rear
Project Low Tide, for pickin up clams.
I've been thinking of something like this for my k1500.Thanks for the info!
Did this work with no problem?? I have an 89 k1500 as well and want to do this
The front keys when I clicked on the ones you tagged said it only drops 1-3 inches.
GO LT! I support the lowering of the 4WD
Siempre buenos trabajos👏👏🍻
now this is content
We hired one of those mobile dustless blasting guys to blast the paint off the brickwork our house.
I love this build. So cool.
I would have loved to see those old five star wheels repurposed with a set of 295/50r15 tires
My truck is a Chevrolet 99 1500 4x4 4-6 drop and when I put the 4x4 my cv joints on the axels break why do they break
LT is the Best!!
i've always been curious if it was possible to lower a 4wd, and now i see its not that hard. it should launch like a rocket now and make a great drag truck for the street nicely done
That guy he was impersonating with the little cowboy hat was me. 🙁
I WANT IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Truly awesome
My cousin did this to his 1987 gmc Sierra with a 5.7l with almost the same looking rims
Did he buy a kit? I have an 86 i want to drop down just like this but can’t find a kit for the 73-87 generation
A lowered k1500 is about as useful as a one legged man, in an ass kicking contest.
nice looking truck you got their
What is the Summit kit catolog # so I can order one.
This is bad ass. I’ve wanted to do this on a 92-96 4wd f150 but I don’t know how low you can get with the ttb and still have it align and function correctly. If you can’t get at least 3” lower it’s not really worth it to me/
Dope af I have a 91 obs with a 7.4 454 vortec motor and I have a 6 lug conversion on it and i also have a fake z71 sticker ppl always ask why would I lower a 4x4 not knowing it was a 2wd
