i'd do it. i went to the Monsters at the Beach show a few weeks back here in VB. there were trucks that weren't half as nice as yours there. some of them looked like they bought every accessory from Vato Zone and thought they had some bad *** truck.

No you wont look like a fool, dude truck shows are for truck enthusiasts to gather and discuss trucks. Putting your truck in the show just shows how much more you love your truck and the whole truck scene. I've seen people put there completely stock trucks into shows. Yeah they didnt win, but at least they took pride in their truck. So yeah, enter your truck.

If someone would give me some documentation on how to do this and what kind/size U-bolts I would think about doing this just for the show.

go to the show they are a blast! Mine has been in a few, so has JGG's truck. nothing to lose at all, and the best part is you get to watch others drool over your rig!

I agree.....drop that thing.....Its not U-bolts you need for the rear, you need to get a nice pair of 2" drop shackles to even the rear with the front if that is what you after. I went that way for a few months, before my 2/4 drop.

If you would have read what I said earlier I cannot lower it! I do way to much offoading and towing in the fall when hunting with my other set of wheels/tires.
thats what you think....My stang got backed into my a corvette owner after a parade...hit and run...bastard lol
I say go for it...its for fun and its nice to get out and look at others vehicles and have people ask you questions about yours....I had a plaque made up for the stang....but I would just print up a list of mods for your vehicle and enjoy the show

Go for it. You have a nice looking truck.
I remember going to the Carlisle All-Ford Weekend a few years back and taking my Mustang but not entering it. As I was walking around I felt like a fool for not entering it.
