  • I lifted my truck!

    I am really happy with it. 4" Rancho w/ RS9000X shocks, 35x12.5" ProComp Mud Terrains, 17x8 Weld Rims.

    First pic is before, all the rest are after...

        How did this affect handling? On road and not off road!
        According to the latest official figures, 43% of all statistics are totally worthless...

          Why?

            This class of truck (Dodge, Ford or GM) climbs like a goat offroad and are like armored personnel carriers on the road. Just don't ask about the mileage

              It really doesn't effect anything because it was designed with my truck in mind. Actually, it has improced slightly as the shocks have a dial to adjust between very soft(position 1) and very firm(position 9). Currently I have it set for 3 which is "cadillac" like. I got the recommended size rims and tires so everything feels like normal. I never took it 4x4ing before the lift but I plan several trips next year. I did get the mud tires so they are slightly louder at freeway speeds but I expected that before I bought it.

                  Let me guess, you think sports cars are the only way to go and trucks lifted are so ugly

                  This is the typical response from most people about lifted trucks. Unfortunately, I am in the minority but just the same, I hate cars in general. Why do you liek computers? why do you overclock? why do you ask why? Because it is SO ****ING COOL!!!!

                    btw, anybody in the market for 20" rims with P26560R/20 tires I am going to post them on EBAY soon. They are going for about ~$1100.

                      i think the truck looks great, a bit typical american bulky design though
                      that license plate thing was just a joke to scare you, seems you didn't fall for it

                        Yep, typical american truck thing I am not worried abou the license plate thing, if somebody really wanted to find out my license # they could do it fairly easy. It's just a deterrent

                            Touchy arn't we ?

                            No, I don't think it was ugly...
                            Yes, it got cooler after the "lift"
                            Why I like computers? thats a complicated question and the answere would be too long
                            I do not overclock!
                            I asked because I wanted to know if you did it purely for the astetichs or if you were going to do some 4x4 races or something

                              I liked it more before the operation (then again, I'm a pussy). It's still cool though, so tell us... Exactly how many inches did that add?

                              Hey, just kidding, I'm only jealous...

                              Edit: And since you're obviously handicapped (see first photo), won't it be more difficult for you to get into the car now?
