    I would "assume" anyone who "built" an axle for a truck that tall would of not set it up with a OE pinion angle. If they did they are morons or have stock in a U joint factory.

    Not even close. This is the WTF thread. No one said he was unworthy of life.

    Maybe it's just a show truck :notsure: I see them all the time and they are all show no go. I just see no point in taking a capable truck and dumping tens of thousands of dollars into it just to make it much less capable.

    this

    and this

    must be the water :notsure:

    A lot of my friends are into those lifted and snorkled 4wd 4-wheelers but I just can't bring myself to spend as much or more than what ive got into my truck on something that is going to get thrown into muddy water which leads to be constantly broken.

    I'm pretty sure most of those aftermarket axles, especially gorilla axles, are made to handle the higher angles caused by the lift kits.

    Kid you clearly forgot to take your buttplug out last night:

    You're saying buckstop bumpers are illegal to drive with on the road?

    I think the true problem here is you're jealous, perhaps not of the "exact" truck, but the idea of having money to build/have a truck like that, having the brain to construct and fabricate the parts/design all by yourself.

    I look forward to the day when my taco is sitting on 38.5s and i can listen to you telling me how illegal it is :D

    Humane and inhumane are simply based on a persons perspectives.
    It is not truth or fact to define killing an animal to eat it as inhumane, its opinion.
    A clean kill to minimize pain is humane as we can do, a cougar could suffocate the same animal for several minutes for example. Is the cougar inhumane?
    What is inhumane then? Unnecessary or intentional suffering perhaps.

    "BUCKSTOP bumpers are 1/4" steel in the primary impact zone and winch center and 3/16" steel under the headlights. Very difficult to dent in animal strikes, very resilient in other collisions"

    Your OE laws strictly forbid steel bumpers that do not crumple. Try again smart guy :cool:

    Yes, I'm jelly of a useless money pit :rolleyes:

    also jealous of his keen 4x4 knowledge and skillz :rolleyes:

    Having the proper pinion angle so you don't blow out drive shafts is lift knowledge 101.

    You clearly have zero knowledge of your states laws, zero knowledge of the most basic of drive train angles, or common sense. Hit the books and come back when you have learned a thing or two grandpa.



    Good one. He clearly needs to send his cousin this

    Personally I think the guy is lying about everything.

    I sure as hell know BEFORE I bought my plate bumpers I checked my states laws. Last thing I need is to get into an accident and go to jail for being stupid then get out to pay off hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of lawsuits my insurance wouldn't cover.

    I think he should get his cousin to joint TW so he can explain all the legal modifications he did and how bad ass his truck is.

    Lol call me a grampa! I guess 23 is considered old age now. Funny your so into being a law obeying citizen - makes me chuckle - again you can hide your jealousy and low self esteme with your anger, I understand.

    Wonder why no one on this site likes you :not sure:

    Well you called a 33 year old a kid so I figured I call a 23yo grandpa :rofl:

    Am I the one posting pics in the WTF thread about someones truck I know nothing about?

    then commenting on my own states laws I know nothing about?

    I'm the least bit jelly of a POS Dodge let alone a bro'd out 2wd lawn ornament. Personally I think it's the worst possible thing anyone could do with their money.

    I'm not angry. Believe me. Your ignorance is actually making me chuckle.

    Low self esteme.... :( How did you know? I'm actually fapping to that Dodge right now as I cut myself

    Yes I'm gonna go with VERY low self esteme.
    What makes you think I know nothing about it? I've helped install the suspension and tires, I've even driven it a few times. I'd say I know a fair amount
