    body drop is a modern term, much more applicable to body and frame vehicles, like mini trucks where it started.
    A more vintage term would be channeling.

    I will say it's a LOT of work and money. The stuff can't easily be switched back either. So make sure you have fully researched it, have the time, money, space and skills (or a ton of money to have someone else do it) before starting.
