fourteen pages of bullshit!I started as a metal fabricator in the early nintys.I have bodydropped more trucks than you have in your club.I have stock floored coupe cadillacs,hand built frames,manufactured stainless fuel cell's I own pipe benders,tig welders,lifts,sodablasters and frame jigs.I have actively built,shown and been in the scene for a long ass time so don't blow smoke up my ass!I have been looking at though's trucks for years and immediately new there was something wrong with it.Also no frame,clip,arm or any other component will change the fact that that wheel won't clear like that.You implying it will is a insult to anyone with that truck or anyone that does that type of work and is the reason for the conflict.please don't insult what I do for a living by lying to us.

right on man i think some words wear mixed up with rim sizes and wut not and i think the guy may had thought it was a 22 but really a 20 and know they put 22s.. but they went to far in to this and it is to late to turn back know...just my opinion.

point i think were all trying to get out is hte ranger i have in my shop RIGHT now has a 3 in stock floor b/d and 225/35 20s and tire is past the lip on the fender.

this is like this guy telling me 22's will fit on a body dropped to the rocker mazda. i dont care what suspension components you use. it is and always will be impossible! i want to see pictures with measuring tapes in them!

ryan do you think that your the only person in the ENTIRE world who has all that stuff in your shop? You think that i am on here being the owner of a shop tryin to piss everyone off.. NO, the fucking wheels just worked. Sorry that all your OLD SKOOL therory's are out the window. Sorry that you scratched your heads bald. The shit just worked. And the more you type, the better it will work. I am not gonna sit here and defend myself, and russ's truck. You think that i am lyin get off your ass and drive, fly, walk, ride the bus to IOWA get out and lay on the ground looking at the rocker. Stand the fuck up and scratch your heads some more and say, "I just dont get it"..
Because i am 24 years old, you doubt that i know anything. I have helped my dad built Champion Hydraulic Cars that hopped 65" and i have helped him Body drop rangers with i beams and put hydro's on a AMC PAcer. SOme of you people think that your the only ones who have done this YOU WHOLE LIVES... I have for 11 years. So you do the math..

LOL....measuring tapes now!...

You people here kill me. You are so full of shit half the time. There are a lot of knowlegeable people here, and a lot of information to be gained, but its not worth the posers and haters running their peter holsters to even try to decipher. You guys called him out, said he couldnt be laying on 22's. Then he proves it, so you doubt more, so he puts 24's on it and never said it would lay, then you bitch because it doesnt lay on 24's. How many of you are the same ones who were bitching about dude putting 24's on the dime, and how stupid it was, but you continue to push this dude. I give him props, when half you guys can lay on 22's then talk shit, but it looks like hes gonna be laying on 24's soon, so you better step your game up before you run your mouths. Props bro, i dont know ya, and until now hadnt seen your work, but good job.

back to the subject at hand, little click click and his brother nnnnnpop pop click need food

i dont talk much on here but i have been keeping tabs on this one and give me a fucking break i dont know this guy but he is a minitrucker and he does have a ride with more stuff done then alot of other people in here so what if he is or is not laying rocker why not just say hey man looks good and move on keep your negative additude to your self i think the truck does lay out on 22 and i thing the 24 will put the truck up a inch or so but untill i see it in real life i am not going to say it does or does not. anyways good luck man and hope to see it in minitruckin one day finished and this will be a story they will add to your feature that every one who doubts you will laugh about peace man.

like i said be for this pic should sum it all up for ya...the black ranger had to extend the bottom of the fender...if not then it is not body drop all the way.... bottom line ..just like brad said do you see any room for 24s





i think the point everyone is trying to make is "you cant fit 20lbs of shit in a 5 pound bag

if you take a stock ranger fender that model year and sit it up on the ground off the truck and the top of the fender measures 28 inches or less then theres no way (in our universe) you could stand up a 28 inch tall tire inside of it and still have 2 inches of clearence. ITS NOT PHYSICALLY POSSABLE!!

only thing i can tell by the pictures to explain for the room under the hood (if that is indeed a 22 inch tire in that under hood pic) is that the truck does not lay out flat on the front fender like the white one does on 20's PERIOD!!

NOW it may be that in that pic it was not layd all the way out because it was parked on grass and that could account for the gap.

with out seeing it in person we would need to see a non stop video clip of the truck "laying flat rocker" and then move up to the under the hood shot and show the gap. i dont own a ranger so i dont know the measuement from the bottom of the fender to the top but im sure someone could get that and post it up, like i said if its less then 28 inches than the whole "they just fit or it just worked" story is out the window because it goes against the lows of physics
