Steve Kirby' email:redneck6919@yahoo.com
This huge Chev started out as a stock truck, and Steve Kirby of Destin Florida couldn't handle that, so he installed a 6" Procomp IFS suspension lift and a 3"body, with 38x16.5x15 Swamper TSL's, on 15x14 Bart Wheels, But Steve didn't like that set-up either, so he built it stronger!. He called around to different places and finally hooked up with Boyce Equipment. they hooked Steve up with a 79 Ford Dana 44 3/4 ton front straight axel with 4.88 gears, and a GM 14 bolt rear w/ 4.88 gears. He then bought a 12" Swamprunner kit from Super Lift, a 2" straight axel conversion kit from Off Road Unlimited, and a 4" shackle flip kit from Off Road Designs. all this to clear the huge 44" Super Swamper TSL's. Heres some advise from Steve....IF YOU ARE RUNNING BIG TIRES, INSTALL A STRAIGHT AXEL!!!!. Steve calls his truck, "The Search is Over". "Wow, awesome toy Steve!!!".

hell, if she looks like that she can be 50 and named Tom, Dick or Harry* for all i care! personally i prefer blondes.

*just because she is named Tom, Dick, or Harry doesnt mean she can have the parts of your "standard issue" Tom, Dick, or Harry. must have ALL female parts. in the words of Tone Loc, "i aint got no plans with a man"
