i dont understand why he wouldnt just 4 link it. those springs gotta be rough. on a good note there is no blocks in the front. the rear kinda scares me a little. all and all not to shabby ive seen a lot worse.

gayvatar?


the leaf springs point straight up! Coils or coilovers is the only way to go with something that tall!

first off.......who in the hell made those springs for him? the front shackle angle wouldnt allow for crap flex anyway, even without mile high springs. What he calls "ladder bars" aren't. They have a joint at each end, all they do it keep those huge springs from buckling backwards when he hits something, and from ripping themselves out from under the truck. all for only 22000 bones......

after looking at it again also(tryin to save my butt..lol) i wonder how long those axles are gonna hold up to those massive tires. and a 460s got power but it looks pretty much stock, even with a doubler its gonna work pretty hard to turn those things in the mud.

just think. somewhere out there, someone thinks that that is the most badass truck they've ever seen, and is worth way more than he's asking.

Rocks being super strong is a big misconception (and Nick will even back me up) Stock rocks arent as strong as a chromo'd 60. Put some money into them and yeah. Cheaper to build a chromo rock than a chromo 60 though. I doubt this idiot knows what 4340 is and certainly doesnt know who overson engineering is. I bet he breaks stuff as much as a guy with 38s on a D44 but I bet he says its because of "all the power" in the 460 because these are rockwells and they dont break for nothing.


POS and I woulding give him $22 much less $22,000
