You really need to ask him what he is going to do with the whole frame deal that will be sticking out behind his bed once he finishes cutting it off. I am just really curious to see what he says lol.

"I'll just cut it even with the bed and bolt the rear hangers to the sheet metal bed"... I can just imagine.

From what I've gotten the bumper looks fine from the front but the way he attached it to the truck it will be ripped off first time he uses the winch.

He's Tucker Jones, he don't need no help from no one. He knows all and he's done 2 bobs before he claims. Instructor tried to suggest something and he was like I've done it before so i'm gonna do it my way cuz it's worked before, so i like my way better. No joke, that's word for word what he said.

He could have made it better, but it's ugly in person, trust me.

As far as 2wd goes. I don't have a problem with 2wd, it's this kids whole attitude, how he thinks he can go further, how he's better than anyone else, how his fab work is amazing.

I guarantee you he has to get out and use his winch before I have to put it in 4wd. Guaranteed.

He plans on cutting off both spring hangars off each side and flipping the leaf spring around so the long end is up front, he thinks that's gonna work and not have axle wrap at all. He's done it before and not had axle wrap. I know for a fact he doesn't even know what axle wrap is. I had to explain what my traction bar does to this moron.

Yup! Apparently he's going "wheelin" this weekend near my house. I'm so anxious to see if he gets his bob job done this weekend in time for the "wheelin" trip he has planned.

I really wish you guys had a chance to meet this kid, so many of you would clown on him up and down...

even if you were a street pounder your truck looks killer to that piece of ****. he probably claims to "****in mob it" when he really just spins around in a small mud pit cause he has a small ****.

... where would the leaf springs go when he cuts the frame??? im scared....

also. i know you wouldn't want to hurt your truck wheeling but you should go with tow rope and help him get out when he gets stuck (15feet in) and then it would be over...


but seriously.. he has no lift. on 29's? and what... nothing.

Well, what I did in high school was resort to violence...But thats alot of paper work so don't do that...

Just walk up to him while hes at his truck and say "Dude, what the **** is that? Seriously, looks like the the Ranger that was the abortion left over from the end of the factory line..."

Well, he sounds like a tool. I know the type though. If you're lucky like me, he'll end up moving to Florida. I feel sorry for anyone that has to deal with that kid down there. He was a real piece of work..

I think the best part of him ran down the crack of his momma's *** and ended up as a brown stain on the mattress.

I do give him credit for bobbing a ranger bed, cuz if done right it could look pretty sweet!

Rob this is called karma, what goes around must come around.

So what if the kid can't fab for ****. That's his problem. If it bothers you so bad when he talks crap, why don't you put him in his place instead of talking **** behind his back on a website?
