Mike, it could also be that someone shortened the frame. It's not that big of a project if you have the skills and equipment. :)

You could be right, Clay. Doesn't it often seem like mods end up being based on what's lying around? :lol:

That's an insane lift. The ground clearance isn't even that good- the axles are muuuch lower than the body.

Here's a few that I've been meaning to post for a while. On average, I see at least 2 bumps a week driving around my area. There's about 10 more that I plan on posting pics of sometime soon.

There are a lot of bumps around my town. Pop. 800. Of course it is ranch and farm country.
