Anybody knows that with a custom vehicle a suspension tweak is always a must. Bradley was able to see that low was the best way to go. Wanting not only a low-down stance, but adjustability on the fly, Bradley turned to C&R Autobody in Tallahassee, Florida to rework the Chevy's stock suspension. In the front, DJM 2 ½" drop spindles were bolted up to the factory suspension and Firestone airbags were custom fit in the front of Bradley's Chevy. In the rear, the factory leaf springs were left in place, but Firestone airbags brackets were built. A custom C-Notch was also built, allowing the Chevy more travel room. At all four corners you can find Doeschtech shocks, to smooth out the ride quality. In the bed, a custom built enclosure houses the custom painted, seven gallon airtank, with Bradley manning the controls of the manual valves from the cab of his Chevy.

Looking for wheels, Bradley looked no further than KMC to help complete the look he wanted for his Chevy. In the front, 18x8.5 Hellions were bolted up, wrapped in Michelin Pilot 255-40-18 rubber. In the rear you'll find 20x8.5 Hellions, also wrapped in Michelin Pilot rubber, in the 255-35-20 fashion. Under the hood of Bradley's Chevy, a 350 c.i. V8 from a 1977 model truck was installed, replacing the stock motor. The engine's block was first painted black, giving it a clean look.
