Uhhh, apparently you havn't searched this too much.

Just a quick explaination is that any lowering past an inch in the front is going to be custom. You will need spindles and UCAs and possibly LCAs and being 2wd is almost a must.

The rear is a custom flip kit and then possibly a C channel if needed but that kills your bed so its a trade-off.

Now, lifting is easy. Just search PRGproducts.com and you will get a pretty good understanding from there.

Just do us all a favor, make sure you research your plans to ensure they are capible for your truck and then lay it out for others to review. We get too many of the "how do I lift my truck" threads which are usually a waste of time because the 2nd gen lift sticky answers it all. There is also one on the Titan swap so that may be worth looking at too.

In the end, it is up to you. How much money you are willing to throw at this and how much work you can actually do yourself. That is the limiting factor in most cases, money and skills.

more then likely im gonna lift it, cuz like the first reply said it is a truck, and with this truck im gonna be hauling my 240sx, ive already read up on the titan front end swap with aftermarket spindles, i really would like to see what a lowered crew cab would look like though, most the street trucks on here are extended cabs, just wondering if anyone has pictures, thats all

i think its funny people automatically say a 2wd should go down when i myself have a lifted very off road capable 2wd that has probably done a lot more then most 4x4's will do in their lifetime. It all depends on what fits your style and what you want to do with your truck. i have two other vehicles for on road driving and playing with. And for what i do off road my 2wd frontier does what i need it to do.

That looks horrible. Granted, rims would make it better, but overall I'm not a fan of lowered trucks...
