I agree... Ads, job applications, legal documents, formal letters, etc...all call for correct spelling. Internet forums? Not so much.

What he also doesn't say is that those 53" michelins are only rated to go 55 mph also. so now you got a top heavy, 2wd truck, that won't go over 55 mph.

Somehow I don't doubt that someone who's dumb enough to build something like that in the first place is also dumb enough to fly down the highway with it at 80+.

3 things that I never understand about garbage like that.

1. if he rear ends or t-bones a car-well you know the rest. To me, lift is fine, as long as the bumper or such is still functional, over the "safe" line its mainly people with no brains, who feel very "in control" until they are faced with the death of someone, after their front bumper charges right through the side window of a car.

Locally it happened years ago, and the guy wasnt feeling so great about his lift and tire selection afterwards. He was also charged for vehicular homicide, because the bumper height was over spec.

2. DONT DONT mention warranty. First of all, its gonna be denied, second of all no one is gonna use a 12foot step ladder to ck for a top end oil leak.

3. If its such a great 2005, then why sell it? Blah blah blah, this truck is so great it runs great, it rides great, I dont want it anymore because its such a great truck. Matter of fact its so great, he has no bids.

Actually, it's not. There is no law that says you cannot use fully hydraulic steering or that you have to have a mechanical linkage.
