Good idea!!! I have two bottle jacks laying around, think I might ditch the leafs and use those so I can adjust for heavier loads.

This thread is full of win. If you can't afford shocks just use some long rubber bands and duct tape too

You say "another 2 inches" and want 3", so which 1" lift did you go with?
How'd you know where and how much to cut your flares without the lift and tires and it flexed?
Was it a "use your instinkes kinda thang"?

35s on stock gears eh? I wanna see that thing go ANYWHERE under load. 0-60 in what 2 minutes?



Also I think we'd all like to see a pic of this 4" on 38s and 3" on 35s rig.
I seriously do not believe someone is driving that. Especially in Cali with their rigid laws about mods.

I CALL BS

Prove me wrong please, unless you ARE indeed a troll.
