I am collecting the parts as we speak.

I don't understand why it would be illegal! I've been running mine all summer and have put alot of miles on it and have had no real issues other than a slight wander issue.

i really want to, but this is the wrong time of year for me to be shopping for myself. but i have been keeping an eye out for run-down trucks in people's yards i may be able to snag for cheap.


who said it isn't legal?

You know what they say about guys running big lifts, they need big jack stands.

I don't fawk around when it comes to working under my truck. Only bad thing is I don't have a floor jack that is capable of lifting the truck to the highest setting. They will extend to a max of 38" should I please. I had them custom made and well worth the $200 I spent. I was sick and tired of stacking wooden blocks.

I use jackstands similar to yours CopyKat. Except mine are supposed to be for boats, they were laying around at work and had been written off, into my truck they went.

 

[Evan]

Well those are awesome stands. I have a set of fairly large 6 ton stands, but they're still not tall enough.

EDIT: It's funny because you have some super beefy stands, but then there's a tiny 1.5 ton jack in the pic.

No I am not. They are stock beams I plated and gusseted. I should have cut these ones but you live and learn. Next set will be cut and turned.

35/44 hybrid

Ran my 94 as a hybrid for about 6 months till it was stolen, loved it, had way better stopping with 35's and pulling a trailer.

Huh? What happened?

Edit, I forgot, I guess you're getting into the "prerunner" thing now?
