I woudl love to dee that thing do a real hard boosted 4x4 launch... I can hear the anouncer at the track now.... "well the duramaxes times are as follows... The lower frame ran a respectable 13.86 and the uper frame came in a little slower at 15.43"

BBBWWWHHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

 

In concept or theory, I think it's a cool idea. By using the dual frames he is not changing any of the geometry of the suspension, or steering, I'm not smart enough to tell from the pictures how he has the engine and drivetrain lined up. But basically just a new drop Pitman Arm and your in business with all the stock parts.

Ok I was nice for minute. Now for the build itself. What the hell pack a stoned monkeys figured out all that fabrication crap. This has got to be a joke. With all the crap things that cops worry about some times why are they letting this contraption roll down the road. From the looks of it the forward momentum of a quick stop would tear those things he's callin supports right off the stock chasis.

To all those folks in my past that I argued with for using 4X4 wooden blocks as lifts for their trucks, I apologize. comparitavely speaking I guess your ideas weren't so bad after all.

 

i've sat here today and have tried to answer the "why" part of this but for the life of i can't. from an amount of work stand point this idea comes in last. from expense standpoint this idea comes in last. and from the safety standpoint this idea doesn't even make the list. i just can't figure out why anyone would even dream of doing it. IFS isn't that hard to lift if you know what you're doing and $3000-$4000 for a kit ain't anywhere near as expensive as what this has/will cost.

 

I bet he spent next to nothin on this. A junk yard chasis for the second frame and some scrap metal would have taken care of the biggest part of this build. I'm sure he thinks he's a genius for thinkin of it.

 

I will have to keep my eye open for this truck. It looks like a New Mexico plate. I have never seen it but would probably wreck my truck from laughing so hard. You would be AMAZED on the gheto fab work that is in this state!!

 

I've spent time on the roads in Panama, Honduras and the Ukrain, among a few other remote locations and thought I'd seen about every kinda contraption sorta thing there was, but this one is still a shocker,and it's right here on our roads in one of the most developed countries in the world. We should all be proud.

 

From what I heard, it was parked at a salvage yard in New Mexico. I know it is second hand info, but that is what I heard. It is a good place for it though....

 

OMG, its got a Duramax...

What a waste.

 

the boy on pirate that took the pictures said it followed him into the parking lot. I can dig up the link in a minute

 

Just what in the hell was he thinking? That it would look cool?
