8in lift with 35in tires. :eek:

[DDBooger]

Don't pull a hammy getting in.

[orange machine]

Yeah know doubt. This lift kicked my freakin butt, I started on it friday at 2pm and finally turned the last bolt on saturday morning at 8am 18 straight hours. It was an absolute beating!:flaming:

[Trashman]

Nice.....................good color!:D

[bobcat1]

Lookin good OM!

[Tired ole Bobcat]

N i c e!!! Looking good.

[orange machine]

Thanks, its been a real treat "NOT" lifting this thing. I like the finished product, but a little advice if you ever lift your truck pay someone to do it. This is the 3rd truck ive lifted and it was the absolute hardest.

[PPHSfan]

Where do you wind it up?

Funny you say that i was just telling a buddy who came and looked at it today that i was not a big fan of maroon until i lifted my truck and put the bigger tires on it, now the color looks pretty good i think.

Nice---raised center of gravity to help make those sharp turns more exciting.

Looks good though. Keep all four wheels on the pavement and you will have fun.

My wife was not free with the money either I had to pretty much steal it from her lol. She allowed me to do it, but it took alot if convincing and sweet talking.

I think she knew it would look stupid.

So don't you think I would have a bigger truck if I could afford it? I drive what I can afford what do you drive some expensive vehicle?

[Emerson1]

If you are so strapped for cash why buy expensive tires and a lift? I don't know much about parts, but I know those tires ain't cheap.

I got the tires at cost and paid half of what they normally cost. I installed the lift kit myself and saved 900 bux. I traded for the wheels so really I don't have much money in it. I'm broke in the since that I can't afford a 750 dollar car payment every month or go out to eat ever single night. I didn't say I didn't have some money stashed away for toys.

What's the deal with the piece of 4x4 and the two pieces of 2x6 laying in the yard? Are you a redneck?:D

[Farmersfan]

I hope you will enjoy it. I had the itch at one time and scratched it with this. Now it just seems a bit overkill. 10 mile per gal and s loud, rough ride isn't what I originally had in mind. The only thing forcing me to keep it is that I need it to pull my RV.

[bobcat1]

Nice

Wow...:rolleyes:

Did he ask you to foot the bill or something? :confused: Does he owe you money? :thinking:

Why be so critical of how he spends HIS money???

[Emerson1]

Same reason people here freak out when they see a black guy in a crappy car on 20s.

I hate stupid stuff equally.

He is the one who brought up money btw.

No Im far from redneck I had to use the wood to assist with lifting the truck to put my tires on. I placed the wood between the floor jack and the truck. The wood just got left there and made ut into the picture.

If you spend money on a lift kit and big tires for a 4X4 that never leaves the pavement, You might be a REDNECK!

If you have a little bitty truck on monster tires and wheels, you might be a REDNECK!

If you post on a public forum that you spent your children's college fund on jacking up your tonka toy, you might be a REDNECK!


Sorry dude! I could do these all day.......:D

[orange machine]

Well I guess I'm a redneck by all these things. Oh well I'm a happy redneck with a little big tonka truck.
