saw it in one of the off-topic threads on cumminsforum and had to post it here in the WTF thread

I like the fact that they left the air filter in there...and the burrs from the cut...

he coulda saved so much time by just removing the tube from the turbo intake if his plan was to run filterless?!

2wd would be ifs, I am thinking the last I beam front suspension 1/2 ton dodge truck was back in the 50's early 60's.
Unfortunately the wheels are clean. No packed dirt or mud or snow

It's got both wheel weights on the in and outside of the wheel, but as mentioned at full lock to the left it all (tire, rim, and wheel weight) scrubs the bottom control arm. I'm surprised the wheel weight hasn't already been knocked off.

Front end needs alignment, but afraid to know what all it needs before that can be done

Yup, IFS indeed

Only Ram 3500 with the 11000GVWR package had a solid front axle for 2WD.

Check the upper and lower control arm bushings, should be four per side, two on each arm where they attach to the frame.

They are trying to make people think the NRA is in support of north korea iran and siria because the NRA is not opposed to keeping assault weapons and high capacity magazines legal.

Your average liberal moron will eat this up and think the NRA is supplying weapons to these countries...

its so the citizens can be armed and if need be form a militia to overthrow a government that no longer represents the people they govern...

of course with modern technology these days even that is a hard feat to accomplish...
