Who drives this truck?

Just wondering whose truck this is?

http://mrrottndog.smugmug.com/gallery/119980/7/4309479

First lifted dually I have ever liked. I wouldn't mind doing something similar to mine and I would like to ask the guy about it.

I'd just like to find out what size lift/tires the guy is running on the Dodge. That is the perfect lift set up in my opinion.

The S10 is running 2.5 ton rockwell axles. They probably ditched the brakes and went with a pinion mounted disk brake. Or that could be set up for a parking brake, I've seen both. I used to live out in CA and it was all to common to see big trucks like that. I think their version of off roading is parking on the grass. Those air bags on the first ford are hugh!! Looks like a kelderman setup on steriods

I have never understood why they raise them up that high, and their axels aint that much higher than stock.

They just air the bags way up to lift the truck so its easier to show off the custom suspensions and sub frames they have built. They drop the bags down when they are rollin. Kinda like a reverse low rider setup. Instead of slaming the truck to the ground, they raise it way up when they park.
