Default Reverse rake look

Anyone know a cheap easy way to get my truck to have the back end a little lower than the front?

Use the truck to haul stuff My rear gets one hell of a squat when I've got a load of oak firewood back there.

Crank torsion bars some and take the stock block out or flip the shackle.

I don't know why the hell anyone would want to do this but throw a whole lot of shingles back there.... Hence the term "shingle-haulin"

its called "bull-doggin", "squat", "lean". the trie county area that i live in has every truck like this, so you can crank the tortion bars, get tortion keys, take the blocks out, get drop shackles, load the bed up with heavy stuff, or do like people here and lift the front 6in and drop the back 2

Throw the Budweiser girls back there. That'll give it a good look.
