I just saw this post... HA
Yeah that Taco is low a pinch weld dragger, huge wheels and big body drop forsure it sits on the rockers.
Also notice the notched hood for tire clearance. Nice work.
Practicality is out the window but atleast he still has a functional bed. Unlike mine
My wheels are smaller 20" but I can only open my hood about 6" when the truck is layed out or the hood hinge hits the tire. Also had to relocate the shock to the upper control arm and add in the plated in bar from the fire wall to the fender for the upper shock mount and then stiffen it across the body with the brace across the motor(kind of RICE but function over form) or the tire would hit the shock body and still have a few inches to drop and camber in. No rub unless I try to open the hood so I can roll real low. Should be able to ride at like 5 psi or less in the front with no issues.
Excuse the mess under the hood in the pic but it is from July of 09 so it has all been cleaned up.
If I were to do a body drop of 1" I would lay on the rockers like that Taco but thats intense!!
Mini trucks rule!!

Pretty sure that was either a prerunner or more likely an xrunner.
