I hate that more than anything! Thats marks a mall crawler more than anything for me. they always say a custom DS is too expensive

well then dont spend 5 grand on a custom 20'' lift!

I dont have problems with lifted 2wd, it just sucks having to pull them out all the time!

how about sleeper fast?

Vortec V-1B Supercharger Ford 302 or 351

Just something to consider, actually if i didn't have better things to spend the coin on, i would so do it.

Well if its a mall crawler, then that screams that they miss there honda.

Thats not a bad idea, if I had the coin I'd probably do it. But I need to build an engine for it first.

OR. you could throw it on there, and build an engine on the side, until that 302 goes boom. Build the 351 up and once the 302 goes bang just motor swap and throw the SC on the top.

<- jealouls. But 1 turbo aint good enough for me. If im gunna do that im goin all the way!

Twin turbo f250! Hell's yea! That would be sick. I think im gunna build the 250 as a tow recovery vehicle. or maybe just go all out and make it a BA. Idk, but either way i think im gunna get a ranger or something similar, then twin the 250! That would be SICK!


Heck yea, throw a 408w and get a "quite" exhaust, tubro or SC and that will be one sick sleeper!

Thumbs down

my point exactly, this is the off-road section, not the mall crawler section.



exactly why i posted here..i am sure people have lifted 2wd for wheelin......
no much wheelin here in Florida which is why i got rid of my 3 Xj's when we moved form ohio.

Some useful info from the people here on this thread, but more bull**** than any other place i have posted..
