Yah, let's hear it ya 'ol wind bag.... :popcorn:

I was looking for the pics, can't find them. But, just had a brain fart. Being it had to do with me going to the Man Cave when I had it, I bet they are in the MyPics/Automobile/ManCave Folder. I'll look.

Too little of tire for so much lift. Stick bigger tires under it, Then i would rock it.

You'd rock it with bigger tires for about 200 miles and then need a new trans. Unless he's got bare minimum of 5.13 gears, he's killing that trans just with the added height and more wind drag. Add heavier tires, taller tires, and wider tires with more friction on the pavement, Kaboom, fried 4L60-E trans !!! That needs an NV4500 or a 4L80-E for sure. And it still a weak ass front diff unless he straight axled it with a D60 or AMA.

no bueno......That thing just wreaks of basket case and I guarantee the thing has been hacked to oblivion with a lift like that. Probably some schmuck did it in his back yard.
