[Limited96]

might make for a fun weekend project. hah.

 

[Lifted95X]

I'm about 10-15 mins from Detroit.

 

[Michigander]

I'll be willing to help, mostly for free.... if you want custom welding/pipe bending, I'll have to charge you though...

 

[Limited96]

well im 21 on the 10th next month.. so whoever helps gets a good meal or two and plenty to drink..haha.. **** howdy... im glad this truck is finally panning out... *(started out as such a damn headache.. )*

just email me!!!

 

[Michigander]

Well I'm only 19 so just have a bunch of Dew there too!!

 

[Lifted95X]

I'll take some Labatts or Jack

 

[Limited96]

alright.. its a deal.. you two and i, a case of blue, case of dew... and a 3 inch body... any of you ever done it? haha.. if not, then we are ALL screwed... but i hope at LEAST one of us knows what we are doing.. and tools. ill even pitch a bit for gas..


oh yeah.. can i fit 33's if i do this lift? or would it only be 31s...

 

[Lifted95X]

We both have done them and they are a whole lot of fun. I have a 2" with slight trimming and fit 32's. So you should at least be able to fit those.

 

[VairKing]

I can help ya out too, I know quite a bit about cars, but have never done a lift. Sounds like fun, and the more hands the better...I live in Kzoo, but am in GR quite a few times everymonth...

I didn't really ready the thread or anything yet but I've been to Silverlake before but don't you have to be 18 to be able to go on them or do you juss have to get your sticker ?? because I was 16 and I couldn't drive my dads quads on them.

 

[espnfreak]

Hrm, never heard of that rule before. I was 17 last year and I never had any trouble. Don't think it will be a problem

 

[Michigander]

I've never done the 3" and I think it is more complex... are you doing the 2" lift or 3" lift?

 

[eskals]

The trip is planned for October 11th? Isn't that a Friday? I won't be able to make it on a Friday, but I would definately be up for that weekend.

[espnfreak]

Yeah, and don't let a woman drive like this guy did last weekend!

Luckily they both walked away unscathed... could've been a LOT worse... But yes, it was a woman driver...

The sad part is that the truck was GORGEOUS! Beautiful paint job! Of course, he probably could've parted it out in a matter of an hour or so...

How did that happen?? Did you happen to see/find out?? I don't see at that area how she rolled it unless was going too quick and happened to cut the wheel.

 

[Luv2explorer]

Yeah- please do tell how the hell that happened???

 

[Michigander]

hmmmm.... looks like I might be going to the Badlands instead. Do you guys ever go to the Mounds in Flint? We should get a run there, it's $5 and fun for about 5 hours!!!! Anyone interested in that?

 

[Luv2explorer]

How do stock X's handle the badlands?
