Andy Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 hmm id swear real monster trucks lift the chassis to the body height? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freeagent Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 hmm id swear real monster trucks lift the chassis to the body height? No, a lot of monster trucks use body lift aswell as suspension lift... you cant get mega lift using suspension alone, the props would be running at silly angles, and the springs would be too long... even most of the hi-lux monsters you see on the road have a few inches of body lift.. after talking to my MOT man this morning (also a landy modification guru) my disco might be getting a body lift aswell...

Andy Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 yeah i realise they use both sorts of lift, but that was kind of my point the suspension in that thing looks stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snagaroo Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 Same question I posted on another forum. What kind of drugs or booze inspires people to do sh*t like that? Bill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mo Murphy Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 Blimey ! Some people have even bid for it and he wants more than £240 for it, that seems to be about £230 more than it appears to be worth ! Mo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LR90 Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 Yes, but to his credit he's done a good bit of fab. Reversing and turning the axles over is not trivial (well at least for me). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael calvert Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 doesnt look like its test driveable! wunder what the sva would require is it a mazda is it a RR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FridgeFreezer Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 I think the listing spelling tells you all you need to know: THE AXLS HAVE BEEN SWOPED BACK TO FRUNT AND TURNED UP SIDE DOWN, SO THE ENGIN IS NOW IN THE BACK. IT IS POWERED BY A 3.5L ROVER V8 CUPPELED TO AN AUTO GEARBOX. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest diesel_jim Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 I think the listing spelling tells you all you need to know: and as he was typing, his girlfriend/sister was sat rocking on a rocking-chair playing the duelling banjo's on her own personal banjo, signed by Cletus Bighoof, the local rodeo champ/butcher/doctor.
