Sheer engineering genius!

Well its been a while since weve had a truck to laugh at so here goes.

QUOTE OF THE DAY!
Lastly the steering has been changed to the crossover design that some 4 wheelers desire

Classic!
The truck itself has a 4 inch suspension lift with a 6 inch body lift.

Ive got a deal floating with 1evilcrewcab to buy a chromo'd D70 rear with disk brakes a detroit and 4.56 gears. The budget really wasnt ready for it but its a super good deal and I needed the extra beef.

Might be a small amount of tech there.

What a window licker. Seriously i was gonna waste money on a crossover but i think ill just buy some PVC pipe and heat it to bend around the leaf springs. You guys and all you technicall high priced parts tdont have anything on that guy. What a **** smooch. I think his mom might even need to be smacked.

hahahahahah!


I emailed him to ask some "questions" as if Im a truely interested buyer. He said he doesnt know what DOM is so Im guessing thats not what he used. When people pay $11 a foot for something they generally remember. Hes going to measure it tomorrow and email me back but the best I can hope for is 1 1/4 .125 wall sch 40. You never know he may have sprung for the BLING sch 80. I like the bolts on the tie rods with no cotter pin and no lock nut.

I do like the door panels though.

I paid $218 for a 21' piece of 1.5" .250 wall DOM in late September or early October. I was told metal went up again since then.

Cheeto that a heck of a deal for DOM! 3.95 per ft sounds more like sch 40 price.

BTW...I yanked your quote for my sig
