OMFG! I just looked at it some more and realized why it is only 2WD. Not because there's no front driveshaft, but because the front has no axle shafts. Unbelievable!

Whats the point of lifting a 2wd that high?! Looks like some tall blocks in the back too. The springs look like a death trap. Do our Dodges need anti wrap bars when you go so high? I know on my jeep, if I would have gone SOA, it was recommended to do an anti wrap on the rear so it didnt twist up. Also, the shocks look like they are fully out...which would lead me to believe there wouldnt be any drop and lots of tire stuffing. Whatever, to each there own, I know if I had the money, my truck wouldnt look like this.

i sometimes just don't understand why people do that, blow all that money and its only a 2wd. just don't get it, maybe we should make a website that clearly states that if you don't want your money deposit it here so one of us that needs it can use it for something USEFUL!

It was a 4x4. You can see the Dana 44 up front. It's just that there is no front drive shafts. At least he is honest and says its now just a 2wd.

To lift a 2wd that high you need to put the solid axle on it. Especially if you do a leaf spring conversion for the front.

why would you make that front nose sit so much higher than the rear..not to mention the fact..that the rear tires look a lil worn..and if im not mistaken those rear leafs look a lil thin to me...

There's no transfer case either judging by the lack of a shifter...

Also, the big tires on half-ton axles seem to be causing trouble, the right front tire looks a little tilted / |
