Hey guys I am new to semi trucks but not modeling I picked up a used titan at the show yesterday to rebuild custom.

What i am wondering is how do u lower a semi to give it the slammed look?

Thanks ahead of time for your help

See if you can remove the front axle from the springs real careful , then glue it back ON TOP of the springs instead of under them .That should drop the front end, now for the the back mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm i duno sorry .

I am currently working up a custom pete in 1/16...rather thsn using the usual relocating methods; I am just making all new suspension for the truck; using an all new drop front axle (often if you relocate to top of springs, you will encounter clearance issues with oil pan); the rears are just shorter versions of the pete 1/2 leaf/ bag setups...it will drop the truck about 9 inches in scale....this one is gonna be a show truck....so it's all about looks..........Matt
