Hah, he mentions bald tires. Maybe that could have contributed to it. Who cares if your tires are gigantic if theyre slicks...

you gotta at least give him credit, it looks like he did the lift right. No 17" of body lift with 3" of suspention lift.

Solid axle, with coil sprung 4-links fron and rear...but ohh...that poor motor

he drove it THROUGH the garage. lol. I had a buddy one time build a truck worth more than the garage it was in (an older barn) so we tore the barn down to get the truck out. It was like opening a REALLY BIG christmas.

yeah theres deff a three inch body lift on it....i want to see him take a turn faster the 10 miles an hour without some major body role. that suspension looks like its super soft. he did do it right in a way...let me get my calculator out and 46" is 4 feet and then looks like about a foot between the top of the tires and the rockers so the rockers are about 5 feet between the ground and the rockers have fun getting into that....can you say running start!

I wondered as well when looking through those how he got it out of the garage... It's stuck between the beam and the back wall, and that's with the "small" tires. I wonder if he had to take the springs out or something. Seems like a lot of work for something that is pretty useless except for flat mud (and even then he gets stuck). Here's that pic in the garage:



How did he get it out?
