Thumbs up This is way cool to me.

Not sure what it's good for except slinging mud. Wonder if my neighbors would notice it sitting in my yard?

Re: This is way cool to me.

Any fun in owning that thing would disappear as soon as you need to change the plugs or adjust a door hinge. Even the 4" lift on my truck got to be a PITA pretty quick.

True, but just think how easy it would be to fix an oil pan leak or fix an exhaust leak

Re: This is way cool to me.

I need to contact him and ask what axles and such.. I think it would be even better with some 44" boggers on it (Street legal).

Re: This is way cool to me.

I'll never live where someone else will tell me what I can own. I'd bring that thing 1/2 way down to earth,like only high enough to fit the tires. Never cared for excess lift. I guess it's for running in water. I know when I lived in Florida the mud for "wheelin" was usually under a couple few feet of water. That sure is cheap for what must be put into that thing. The wheels are custom made and tractor tires ain't cheap.

I'd just get tires to fit the lift.

That thing is made for running through sippy holes in south Florida. That's just what you need. Buy it and I'll meet you down in Naples. That truck would be a great truck for pickin' up muddy redneck girls!!

Re: This is way cool to me.

It sure seems like it's priced right.I'm guessing you would need a semi to be able to take it out and play.That is unless you wanted to change tires/wheels to load it.

Re: This is way cool to me.

I'd buy some out of date 52" military tires and put on it the lower till it looked right. You could really scare some people driving that thing down the road.

I got a feeling it would be scary on pavement. That's something that would be fun to tailer places. Can't believe it's a 350/350 combo.

Re: This is way cool to me.

If a neighbor complains, run his house over. I would bring it down to a 6" lift and get it road legal, that thing looks good though.

Re: This is way cool to me.

I just spoke to him. It still has 3/4 ton 8 lug axles under it. So swapping wheels and lowering it shouldnt be that difficult.. Well, you know shat I mean.
