Ebay item WOW!!!!!!!!!

definatly overdone, not my style at all, but itll make someone happy. as for tipping, i dont think it would be any worse than any other truck lifted that high. looks like the stance is decently wide for the hight. but all that on a gas powered truck.... can we say 4 mpg :)

but even still, 5.38s are going to stuck for such a large tire. i had 5.13s and 39.5's with 700r4 and the thing wouldnt wana stay in overdrive on the highway going 65-70mph. hes got overdrive so i think should have done some research before i chose gears:doah: at least it doesnt have 10bolts under it
 
did anyone notice the angle on the front diff.....did he want to til it that far up?....waaaaay too far...:rolleyes:,i feel so smart looking at trucks like this....yet always wish they gave me that D60....
 
Something tells me, hes more into beautifying than maintenance....Look at the condition of the motor!!!!!! that thing is dreadfully ugly and must be tired!!!!!

All the money he spent oneverything else (including supposedly the tranny) you think he could have put a little bit more money and attention to the motor.

The under dash hvac stuff looks like crap and probably doesnt actually work!!

also whats with the flame job on the plow lights under the front bumper?

he must have some serious frame flex!!!!! I have 38's and a 12" lift and my frame flexes before the springs..holy god!!

Stock transfer case????? yikes!!!!!!!!
 
yea why would he neglect the motor? its kind of the most important part...haha
 
Ok, I am 6'3, my truck is about the max I would want to get in and out of without any steps, how the heck do you get in that thing without looking like a moron? I mean the thing is obviously for cruising and looking cool, but if you have to grab ahold of the center of your seat (cause theres no way in hell you are grabbin the a-pillar) and then drag your sorry self across the seat with your legs flailing....you dont exactly look cool....

And on the rear axle, I cant really tell on the u-bolts, is that a plate, then a nut, then another plate, then another nut?
 
I remember when big lifted stuff like that was cool, around the late 70's early 80's about the time BIGFOOT was all the rage, what the hell where we thinking?!?!
 
When I was in High Screwl, somebody showed up with a brand new Z28(1969). Black stripes over orange. Probably got laid twice before he blew the clutch(two weeks). What is the cost of "tang"?:haha::rotfl:
 
I used to have a '92 Blazer K1500...that one makes me shudder.
When I had it I was totally all about a 6" lift and 35's but quickly learned the IFS and 10 bolt weren't up to it. There's a similar 2 door Yukon/Blazer/Tahoe rolling around here in the good weather months that has what appears to be a 6" lift, 3" body lift, and at least some wide 37's on it. I'm 6' tall and it's just TOO DAMN BIG.
Then again I have 38's and 1" of lift so I might be biased in the other direction...and my wife bitches about how tall my truck is now...and did when it was stock on 34" tall tires.

All that work for no practical purpose and then he short changes things like the drivetrain, interior, and body. WTF?

Bet it never gets his reserve price and he relists it lower.
 
I know the guy that built that truck and I also know the guy that owned it. It did run a few mud bogs but nothing to crazy. It deffinately rode like a basket ball bouncing down the road but after a few miles and tires warmed up they werent to bad. The guy that owned it just built it to have it big. He didnt want it to flex or even really be bad ass in a mud hole. He just wanted it to be big a be a street truck. I dont think the he ever had any problems out of the motor so that is why it is still stock. ALso how many people are goona actually see the motor?
 
Here is another pic of it from the mud races last year. THat is my dodge on 44's, prowler is on 46's, the green truck in the back was built by the same guy that built the tahoe and it is on 52's, and then the red and black tahoe on 49's.
