Also know as a pre runner look

That's the dumbest thing I think I've seen done to Cherokee. It looks like someone stole the motor. I bought extended shackles because my new lift wasn't even front and back. And there are people riding around doing this?

I remember the days of the hydraulics in the Impala's ect. with 16 switches and what not. It was cool on those cars because you could change the positions. Front, back, side to side and all that $hit. But to drive around like you're going uphill all the time, how is this fun? And what happens when you take it wheeling? Do they do back flips over hills too?
