    Sammy Lift info needed

    (1) What size tire are you wanting to accomodate? 31 x 14.50's or a set of 33 x 14.50's. Not sure yet, Might even go up to 35's later, but if i do (35's) its not going to see much offroad.. Too much tire. Either way, it HAS to go up! (2) Would you be opposed to scrapping the 3" body...

    how do you frame a subframed rig?

    HAHA I didnt know that was a matter of "Mind over Matter" meaning you dont mind cuz it dont matter. :o) I LOVE that mentality. Its what made my old Brat get launched of a "jump" made from an old concrete barrier. G'Luck with this, I'm sure the Hot Wrench is going to come in handy!! Keep...
