Trey's Isuzu Rodeo (Stance wannabe)

[Big_Nyne]

Can you please email me if you see this??? I don't want to go as low as yours but I want to know if chopping some of 250 coils for the rear and welding on brackets for double shocks in the front will lower my Isuzu rodeo 99 enough along with torsion bars adjusted? I'm just trying to get a handle on what I'm doing so I can drop it before my bday in 16 days. jabarsimmonds@gmail.com
Thanks sooo much.

Well I've been lurking for a while now, and finally decided to post my own build. So I'd like to introduce my 2001 Isuzu Rodeo LS V6 4x2. I know, I know - "Not low enough!"

Mod list:
De-badged
chrome grille insert
clear turn signals
cut rear trooper coils (only about 4 coils left)
flipped and switched UCAs
lower ball joints flipped to top of LCAs
un-cranked torsion bars
Thrush Welded dumped over axle
"bullet holled" airbox (only on fender side & front)
drop-in K&N filter
15x7 D-windows
Beauty rings
225/75/15 fronts
235/75/15 rears

Future mods:
limo tint
sound system
hood risers (I know they don't actually do anything)
full face brush guard (& remove the chrome grille insert)
Yakima roof rails to replace my stock ones
home build harley bars
Rhino lined floor boards
I kinda wanna go for an apocalypse look.

Pics, enjoy:

Hello my name's Nyne. I'm trying to lower my 1999 Isuzu rodeo. I want a nice clean wide wheel and stretched tire look and I'm trying to figure out how to lower it. What are my options? How low can I go? What do I need to do? What do I need to fab? I do not want to scrape just be noticeably low and I will most likely put it on 20" x10or 12 wheels.

Man these are truck goals, I have a 98 rodeo that black an hope I looks as good as yours!!!

Nice skid plate.

[GoBig,G]

Got bored and decided to go ahead and make the new skid plate and crossmember.

May also be trading my steelies for these 80's trooper wheels on Friday.

I might run them, might not, but I could go lower if I do. If I get them, they will be coated gunmetal.

A skid plate, one of these, soon will be...

Looks good.
There is a Frontera with bbs RD-T near me, looks killer.

Thanks

Love it man haha, new fav thread. Isuzu always had a special place in my heart

Haha, glad you're enjoying the build

Just me thinking out load (or typing out load), but couldn't you slot the bolt holes for the crossmember and push it as far up as possible? Atleast until you made a new one that is.
For some reason I really enjoy the new wheels.

Unfortunetly not possible; I'm actually gonna have to trim the mount up some when I do it, because the crossmember wraps around them. And since I'm gonna be doing all that work, I might as well just make a new flush one out of angle iron. Maybe one day I'll find something I can't use angle iron on? I somehow doubt it though.

Never even looked into it. sry to sound ignorant, but are they something you make or buy? If they make them for a dana 44, then hell yeah

no worries man didn't come across ignorant, I believe there isnt much to them and they could be easily made. but i havent looked into much myself. they dont seem overly complicated. I could be totally wrong however usually am

[Reubencanyon]

Id also be interested in the camber shims...
Build is looking great

[GoBig,G]

would you be able to run camber shims? lots of other cars with simalar rear axles do that in order to have matching rear camber
