Re: The $1k lifter update.
Well you didn't break the frame trying to do a wheelie with those in there ?
In 1973 I bought a bunch of pieces including chrome seat frame, rear fenders, running boards an a few other trinkets off a guy who had had an AD truck that he sold to some guy for his kid and the kid and his buddy loaded the bed full of cement blocks just in front of the tailgate and proceeded to go out in the street and attempt to do a wheelie and broke the frame in the process. Guy took the truck back to the guy I got the parts from and demanded his money back because he said the truck was defective. I sure got some nice parts cheap and he threw in a lot of extra stuff for free and poured me a beer from the tap on the side of his fridge in his shop that in 1973 was unheard of to have a keg on tap at home.
