or D, as soon as the tires hit the mud, that high class body lift will shear off and launch the body into the mud like it was a boat being christened.

If I had to guess on the body he stacked two 3" kits, but who knows where he got bolts that long.

Seems like it will go reasonably cheap.


ghunt,
yeah its stacked 3'' body lifts. Id say grade 2 1/2" x 10" hex. Nothing but the best


This guy must read the forum or know someone who does because he quit answering my emails.

Hey there's always this option:






And note that that's an F-150 frame so the engineering's already done for you!

Now thats a good lift! 4X6's are sturdy and bolted on with lag bolts! I bet this lift would only run $20 in installed! And for you mud guys just swap the 4X6's for treatred ones!

Again i say smack his mom. Window lickers like that are why off road trucks have a bad name. They should crush that thing like they did that Honda in Florida.

Is that a wheel chock or did one of the lift blocks fall out? I guess he spent all his money on those bogger stickers and couldnt afford the real thing.

Ghunt,
where did you find that pic? Please tell me you didnt take it yourself!

ROFL! Thats funny
Looks like stuff off the scary steering page... If you havent seen that before, I suggest taking a look for some good entertainment!

The straps are a nice touch. Makes it easy to put back together when it teeters apart.

Well, I wasn't going to add onto this topic because I had nothing good to say, but, what can you say about a Bronco II with 2 1/2 axles and a 3" body lift ....

#220192493137

You know it always starts with the 3" bodylift



Then it is the steering



Who needs vacuum advance when you have a 125 HP shot of NOS!




Better hurry up before someone meets the $15,000 reserve
