i did it because ive always loved the look of a 4x4 truck...and the past few years i realized that they look alot better with some type of lift on them and bigger tires.i also like to go off road every now and then with some friends and with bigger tires and a lift u can obviously go through more.and im not gonna lie and say i didnt do it bcuz of looks bcuz the girls around here in mcdonough,GA love the look of em

my current truck isnt lifted but ive always lifted vehicles because i like to be different thats also the reason why i never bought a lift kit ive always built my own (thats not to say there is anything wrong with bought kits) i just like my vehicle to be unique i like people asking where i got the kit from and telling them i didnt i built it, i suppose im a bit of a show off really.
I also like my ride to be capable of what it looks by that i mean if it sits on big **** tires with a huge lift then i want it to be able to go off road so ive always made sure i upgrade the brakes ring and shafts i always tend to over build em that way i never have to be conservative with my driving style.
I love being the biggest thing around and looking like i could drive over anything

Two words, ***** MAGNET!

. . just kidding but some of you might actually get it!

The real reason is because I can't stand stock vehicles, I have to mod all of mine. I like to go offroad so there goes lowering my truck and throwing a set of 24s on it.

Getting a lift on your truck is a statement to yourself for me. A statement that your going to stop talkng about wanting this or that, and actually do it. You cannot take it (money) with you when you go, you have earned it, you deserve it, and it gives your truck personality.

The improvement speaks for itself.

Who wants to drive a stock truck?
