2wd=lower, 4x4=lift, only certain exceptions apply.

I know, but this is Drag VA, its almost required to argue, not to mention like so many others have stated when thier opinion was not asked for.... I have an opinion I am entitled to it and lifting a 2wd truck is gay as fuck unless you are making a prerunner.

Just a thought, is it more homo to lift a 2 wheel drive truck that will never go wheelin....

or lift a 4 wheel drive truck that will never go wheelin. I mean if my ranger was 4wd, i might need it for all of those pot holes and speed bumps.



good for....? Looking like it's good offroad? Maybe running the baja? :rolleyes:

good for towing...

if i wanted it to look gay and homosexual, id make it look like a pre-runner, or just lower it and bag it.

It has new tires now. Last i remember your truck was on bald all terrains

:dunno:

Its kinda hard to take a lowered ranger, and tow a zuk, to an offroad park. When the tow rig starts to get stuck, its pointless to even have.

If i bag it i cant put this in the back anymore...

If yall would like to say its a 2wd why lift it, it cant go off road, blah blah blah, i didnt buy it to go off road, i bought it to tow my zuk, my zuk is what goes off road.....

its currently getting yota's, 5.29s, yj's, detriots front and rear, hy steer, and a 5.8-1 t case. but what the fuck do i know, except my ranger should be bagged so the fat bitches can get in easier.

never said it should be bagged....leave it stock, put overloads on it....

and since this is a "picture war" if you want i can pull out my pictures... the bald AT's were temporary tires. that i had laying in the garage... and i threw them on right after i got the axles mounted back up.

she is rolling on 35x15.50 tsl/sx's now, and will clear 39.5s in a pinch

i am doing a little more work to her, once i get it trail ready (should be sept 1st) i will be happy to go wheelin anywhere with you.. it is 4.88 geared front and rear, trd elocker rear, detroit true track locker front, upgraded brakes, 21 inch flex marlin springs. and chevy 63" springs going in the rear next week. bilstein 14" stroke shocks. on all 4 corners, and im expecting over 20 inches of flex for each tire.

i stated that its gay to lift and put swampers on a 2wd and thats where i stand.... i dont give a crap if you like it or not... its still gay, ive owned 2wd trucks... and i leave them as they sit. maybe put in a set of helper springs but thats about it.

i never said you didnt know what you were talkin about or dissed your sammy in any way... and who gives a shit about your quad... 99 percent of off road parks you can get to in a regular height 2wd truck.. 2 guys i ride with all the time both have stock height 2wd chevy s10 and toyota tacoma... and they get back into the ORV parks fine, hell they were able to make it back into te sand pits at e-city.

Damn dude, no need to post a photographic history of everthing thing you have ever owned with a motor....

I just simply stated my opinion, lifting 2wd trucks is gay, its a poser thing to do unless you are building a prerunner which by its nature 2wd. I didn't say it should be bagged, I said "2wd=lower, 4x4=lift, only certain exceptions apply." Maybe I should clarify, and add in the words; "if you are going to modify it".

Are you saying a stock height truck is bad for towing? or for that matter, Are you saying a bagged truck is bad for towing? Do you know what the load capacity of a properly bagged truck is???? That quad is going to come no where near touching the load capacity of even a single sleeve bag, much less a pair of bellows bags. Now sure if you cut a big hole in the bed, its not going to be very wonderful for putting things in the back, but for that I will revert back to my original statment of "I didn't say it should be bagged".

Hell yeah. Dude got mad as hell and started putting a bunch of pics of his Samurai. Hahaha. That Samurai has nothing to do with lifting a 2wd, which is gay as hell.

Not like it couldnt have happened. Here is the kit

I'm pretty sure if you have that bolted on to your truck its gonna be quick. Likelyhood of you bolting that onto a stock engine is slim

But to go back to the thread If he only wants to put 30's on he might be able to get by with a body lift in which case I could do it less than any shop
