hahahahaha... That suburban is my best friend Chris... He owns North Florida Offroad off of Beach Blvd (904) 642-4030. He jumps off the tires into the truck. Getting ready to put hydraulic steps down. He just got done adding that lift. He went up 21 inches form his old set up... It's just his show truck. I did the stereo in it. 3 tv's 2 JL Audio 13's JL amps... NOT his daily driver. He's got an F350 lifted 8 inches with big rims for the daily. Here's a picture of it before, and thats my old Tahoe with 24's...

I had to link him to this thread....

yeah, man....your boy has a crazy setup! I was sitting there just staring at it for at least 15 minutes, hahah... the flames going into the fender was a nice touch, and I don't even want to think about how much that whole lift kit cost? I just kept on thinking, this truck could seriously roll right over my G if it wanted to, hahah... Does he have door pop solenoids? where does he put his feet when he jumps from the tire to get in? I thought it was funny, about 3 or 4 people came driving by. Each one stopped, and sat there for a minute with this look on there face like "Holy Sh*t!" hahah

It's a CRAZY truck. It just got finished about a week ago. I haven't had a chance to get up there to look at it. The lift was 100% custom. It's more the time than the money... It's been a work in progress for about a year. we use to have to use the tire to jump up in it, by putting your foot between the tire tread. You still use the regular handles to open then door. Last time I was up there, he was talking about putting some automatic drop down steps to be able to get in the truck.

If you notice, he has airbags on his truck too. It can be lowered or raised about 16 inches. To get in, he jumps up the tire, lowers the bags, and then jumps up and in. Dragmode, he saw you with a few of your buddies that day. I guess you went and moved your car next to it to take some pics? Anyways, this thing is a beast.

you said that the picture of it next to your car is in the lowered setting, but yet the bags look fully inflated... either way, nice pics, sick lift on that truck.

i think the kit can still be adjusted higher, the airbags just help with getting in and out.

It looks like it's ALMOST all the way up... The only reason he put airbags on it is so he can 3 wheel the truck.... seriously... I was playing with the burban yesterday and you can get in with it up or down... He drives around town with it about half way up.

And yes it can 3 wheel, as funny as it sounds. He's got front/back/side to side... I'll try and get some pictures.
