First needing to get the body down to mother earth, Jimmy and the crew at Autowerks would get busy. For starters the frame rails would be notched along with the axle being narrowed 1-½ inches allowing room for the 20 inch Boyd Coddington Magnetos wrapped in 245/35 inch Nitto rubber.   Next, the cross member would be cut into tribal flames utilizing a steel plate. A Chassis Engineering ladder bar set up was then utilized along with a panhard bar to help bring down the rear with 2600lb Firestone airbags. Upfront a set of Chassis Tech spindles, DJM lower control arms and Toxic shocks would be installed along with 2500lb Firestone bags. Now with the adjustability in place, a 3-inch body drop would be applied to the hardbody for the proper stance. Along with the body drop the firewall would have to be tubbed along with relocating the battery under the dash. The stock gas tank would then be ditched in favor of a 12-gallon fuel cell.

 Now that the suspension was to Jimmy’s liking it was time to work the body in the same manor. For starters the front clip would be ditched to the side and a set of Frontier front fenders, bumper, headlights and grille which houses a billet insert would all be installed in their place.
