Looks like it's STILL not lifted enough to clear the tires in any type of off road situation!

A for effort though. I love trucks lifted to the sky as long as they get driven in the mud!

As long as there is very little give in the suspension, which with a leaf spring lift there really isn't then it should be fine.

I like it as well... not so sure about the green color though.....

However.... it looks like there may be blocks on the front. :rolleyes: I guess it is good that it isn't street legal.

Yeah, it looks like huge lift blocks front and rear.

thats how a lot of mudding trucks are built in FL. They love the tractor tire set up. Goes right through the mud.

If that is the truck I think it is, there was a LONG post on another board where he was adding axles from some kind of heavy equipment. It also had youtube videos of it in the mud. I'll have to see if I can find it.

Pat, thanks for sharing. Those big mud run trucks are cool to watch running too.

Small world thats my cousins truck. It hasnt been on youtube or anything yet. It has rockwells in it and not a lot of clearance to articulate but the most it does is drive around and thru mud pits. Sad part is its a very good body with almost no filler or rust. Lot of these trucks close because of Bricks Off Road Park is close.
