I agree with CrazyYota, waste of a good truck.  What are you suppose to do with a truck that is lifted that high, and only 2wd?  :rofl:
That is the most stupid thing done to a good truck I have ever seen.   :thumbdown:

Any guy who takes his woman wheeling enjoys her. A woman who is owned is left at home to cook, clean, and keep beer cold. So if this offends you you should stop looking and go have some tacos.    :rofl2: And a beer. If your old enough.   :beerchug:   :beer:

With those bumpers, he should have thrown on some sort of body kit that sits about 4 feet from the bottom of the grill.  Maybe some low profile tires, and a stereo system worth more that the truck itself.  With all the stuff needing to be done to that thing, I would pay about $3k for it, then have to fix that mess. :yesnod:

Apparently nobody told this guy that making brackets out of 3/8" plate doesn't do squat when you weld it to a frame that's 1/8" thick.

I'll give him a little credit for the uhh..."creativity"...to keep the rack and pinion the way he did.  Kind of interesting... it could have been executed much better than it was.  But that's not necessarily a horrible idea.  And I say this in a purely theoretical, thinking outside of the box kind of way.  In no way do I condone solid axle swaps with factory rack and pinion.
