Chris A. sent in this extreme example of eBay excellence. Anytime there's a step ladder shown next to a truck you know it's gonna be good 'cause height is the primary objective!

" i only intended to use the truck for show and to show up some of the 4 wheel guys here in town by having a mini-truck taller than their fullsizes. truck is very tall and stands about 10 ft. at the very top."

There you go! No "safe to drive" or "showcase my fab skills" or even "get me some in-bred slack jawed yokel pussy", just taller 'n the other fuckwipes in town. Way to focus that laser beam intellect on a single objective! I'm sure you'll go far.

 "it has a 4 and a half foot lift on it. the front and rear suspension are custom 4 linked which is the typical monster truck set up."

Uh, riiight... This is the typical monster truck set up if you just happen hang out with dim witted mouth breathing butt munch fuckstick monster truck fabricators who quit paying any attention over a decade ago and couldn't fabricate their way out of a UV damaged extra sensitive ribbed condom! And way to clean up the leaf spring hanger there, show truck boy!

 No need to spring for coil-overs when you can just stack mismatched coils! From the unsupported lower coil buckets, to the half-assed upper spring pads, to the ungusseted tack welded control arm brackets, this thing screams scary!
 " in order to finish the project just run the brake lines (which i have), install shocks, hook up steering, and have a driveshaft made."

Oh, is that all? Uh, wait. Go back one to "hook up steering". That hardly seems worth mentioning, seeing as how every fuckwad and his equally idiotic cousin is more than up to the task of engineering a mechanical steering system capable of accommodating four and a fucking half FEET of dumb-ass poser lift! Just look at the rest of the fine rigs on these pages if you don't believe me.

"go price a decent 97 s-10 that is stock......you will see they go for about 3,000 without any mods at all."

You mean people actually pay MORE for a vehicle that HASN'T been completely sodomized by some welder wielding we-todd? Say it isn't so!

 This was sent in by Erik, who works at a 4WP in Mesa AZ. Screw the square receiver tube front drive shaft! The next hot thing is the bolted together sewer pipe driveshaft on the rear! Of course the owner was complaining of a wicked vibration at any speed over 35, but that was probably an out of round tire or something. How do Tom Woods or High Angle Driveline stay in business when a person can bolt up such a fine driveshaft right there on the concrete slab outside their mo-bile home?
 These were sent in by Zac after Glen posted them on pavementsucks.com. Call me old skool, but "show truck" at least means decent body work! This piece of shit has the usual blow-it-out-yer-ass engineering only topped by a primer bed, drivin' drunk dents on the fender (What the fuck did he hit? The transformer on top of a power pole?), and gravel chipped paint.
 The horror!
 The horror!!
 More with the get-the-slammed-mini-almost-under-the-nosebleed-lift-piece-of-shit. Look it, if you can't get one POS completely under the other POS, don't fucking bother!
 Ned sent me this dumb ass show truck. Neither of us is sure what that block/wrap reducer/brackety thing is. Nice shiny paint so the dumb shit is easy to see, though!
 Same stupidity, minus the paint.
 I know in the past I've said if you're going to make a cluster fuck out of your steering might as well have a shot at crossover, but I might be changing my mind. Maybe I'm just smelling toast and getting nostalgic for old skool cluster fuck steering...
 This piece was referenced as something worth of emulation by some fucktard in an old ps.com thread. He went on and on about the double tie rod... Fuckhead! It's the draglink you gotta worry about!
 From an online auction... A classic scaffolding-spacer-on-the-stock-suspension set up. The seller raved about the snorkel being functional. Riiight... This wad of bovine afterbirth is shown on a public roadway and it's the dumb-ass PVC snorkel I'm worried about being functional!
 My request for clear pictures of the steering were rebuffed, but from the high standard set by the rest of the truck you just know it was hilarious!
 A piss poor parallelogram execution of a piss poor concept. One word, dude: Triangulation!
