What's the point? Your center of gravity is now super high, and it looks like your lower A-arms are just as low as a stock vehicle. Did you get any usable clearence from the ground?

It looks cool for shows; are you planning on wheeling it hard?

LOL It's funny you don't know WHY we know you're from Hawaii, even without the license plate

Those rims are WAY too wide for those tires, BTW

the hawaii style is something different for sure, but i would assume there must be a rational for it, as was said for sand and mud that they go through in hawaii it must help to have a wide stance. it looks unique compare to the rock crawlers that most on here have, but its always function before form. so if it works then right on.
bigger tires may look better but it looks pretty good nonetheless.

*cough*

It's actually the most capable rig in the group. SAS, rims narrower than tires, ground clearance. Yeah, it's too high, but heck, so be it.

i like the plate on the 3rd
i just dont know why they feel that they need a 10" or 15" lift on a truck, money could be better spent on things that matter.
each to his own.

I think your photo's look funny because of the angle you are taking the pics... Looks like it has a 2" lift with some 30" tires on 14" rims.

I like the wide stance... Beats the funny stock tires on a 6" lift look... You should get some 35's though...

Drizzy, are you the same guy who posted a few months ago about doing this. The other guy (maybe you) posted the same pictures. You PMed me about all this stuff.

Anyways, I used to live in Hawaii and know how you guys do it over there, more of a local type thing to do... not for mainlanders

You on Oahu ?
