I still don't see 5-10k if you know how to build ****. Extend brake lines, steering, longer shocks, maybe lift springs in the rear. Hell on those things half of them are probably just drop bracekted. And you know there's going to be kits frome someone soon.

saw one of those at Universal Studios the other night when I was going to City Walk to see a movie, mid seventies Caddy painted green and yellow, yup, you got it, it had John Deer logos everywhere, every red blooded farmer should have a chance at that one.

It says_Jason_ said:
"Needless to say, modifiers have no worries about voiding and warranties, as they would if they were tweaking, say, late-model Acuras. "I literally have people bring me cars out of the junkyard," says Casselman. It can cost them $8,000 or more - sometimes much more - to bring the cars up to the level that attracts attention at shows and from car magazines"
I don't see anything about taking them up to that "hieght" that attracts attention, I see him saying that it takes 8k to build the car up to an attention getting status, meaning tricking the car out, not lifting it.
how much can you get a set(4) 28in wheels with tires?
because 8k isn't even close to the price of just the wheels lets not talk about tires....
trike do you think you can build a box chevy with 8k? lift,wheels&tires,paint(like the cheetos car above),interior(matching the paint on the outside),sound system etc....with only 8k?
if you can pm me....i have 8k and want one of these cars built for me!

Better question, why would you want 28" wheels? He never said that they those were lifted tard cart's on 28's, he said cars, I'm sure that's not all he builds.

What the fuk is that sh!t? And you guys diss ricers...
WOW! What a turd hopper, the car and the wigger next to it. That is plain rediculous. Yeah, lets lift a car so we can fit moster a$$ ugly ghetto wheels on it, throw in a stereo and then call it a fully modified show carw when we are done. Great fuking idea. I wouldnt be caught dead even looking at that car. If you think that is muscle....... We have bigger problems than ricers on this board my god. Words cannot describe how I feel about the morrons that do that sh!t.
For one thing, the cars dont last and are ruined after you dothat crap. Wheel bearings, axles, diffs, controll arms, steering rods, suspension components and bushings, brakes, need I say more? And dont try telling me otherwise, I worked at a shop that had the unfortinate experience of lifting a car like that only to have the darrellick come back 10 times with broken sh*t. We told him ahead of time the car wasnt made for that, he didnt listen, and got mad afterwards. Anyone that can do that to a car can just kiss my bare white a$$. Take that sh*t to the circus where it belongs.:x :x :x :x :x :x :x :x :x :x :x :x :x :x

You mean you actually want one of these ghetto crack head rides?
Jason, I had respect for you. And here you go bragging about how much these pathetically oversized wheels cost? I suppose they wouldnt be near as cool if they cost as much as a normal set of wheels huh?
:lol:
crawlerman said:
no i don't want one....i'm just showing a point....if you can build me a car like in the pic for 8k i have the cash in hand....
these sky jacked cars are all over here....i know how much it cost to do this....i know people that have rides like that....i'm not saying i'm proud of it but they are still my peoples....
i'de much rather drive my beater daily driver 87 dodge dakota p/u than ride in a sky jacker....its just the point if you don't know about something don't tell me i don't know what i'm talking about!
i don't go around telling you how to lift your crawlers...and telling you your wrong....

Hey, those news stories about the world ending on the 22nd must be true, I AGREE WITH CRAWLER MAN! That one specificly, what's with the yellow and red? Ronald Mcdonald drive it or something? He's right on alot of his points about wear, that's going to kill wheel bearings, and especially those brakes the kings of f'tardia didn't upgrade.

and this is why i'm telling you it cost so much to lift a car....almost all this stuff gets replaced if not made stronger....its all custom stuff....rancho doesn't make a kit for this....there isn't a upgrade brake kit so custom adapters hafto be made to make kits from trucks fit....

No matter what you tell me Jason, that crap isnt right at all. Who the heck makes an upgradeable wheel bearing for a caprice so you can eun monster truck rims on them? NO ONE.
That is rediculous and you yourself know it.
