Can someone PLEASE find me the rule book where it says that ONLY 4WD trucks can be lifted?? I've looked for years now but I can't find one. I don't understand why most people think that just because we can't power the front wheels that we shouldn't lift our 2WD trucks.

Exactly. A guy I work with has an FX4 and it's never seen dirt or mud. I don't understan it. I've put my 2WD in the mud several times. Yeah I may have gotten stuck several times but it's the joy of going through the mud.

Have to admitt the red ford oval looks terrific. Its sacreligious (spelling), but looks great on the red truck. Me, I still bleed Ford Blue, whished the engines were still that way. Good looking truck. Keep here up and maybe you can enter it in the TOTM in 35 years as I have.

Sorry. It just bugs me when people ask stupid questions like, "Why would you wanna lift a 2WD??" I don't understand it.


Wxmcpo has the best lookin' 2WD on here and it's sitting on a 6" lift with 35's. I've gotten mine stuck plenty of times and every time I got pulled out everyone with me was smiling so you DON'T have to have a 4WD to go off-road.
