Heavy Duty Drop Brackets
These tires appear to be designed for sand and other DRY coarse materials, I think they would almost act as shovels in mud! That is why they are used in the :frustrateMiddle East aka "The Sandbox" as towcat so eloquently calls it! I live and work in San Francisco and the only off-road driving I...- WrecklesCustom

Heavy Duty Drop Brackets
Those are some pretty sweet trucks you have!! According to the guy I bought the lift from it is 8" but seeing it on the truck it is definitely 6" to 7". With the addition of the 2" body lift it is up around 8" or so... I am not trying to make it the biggest or the badest truck out there...- WrecklesCustom

Pulling Hydro Boost
I found a dually 1994 F350 locally that is being parted out. I am going tomorrow to pull the master cylinder and hydro boost along with the water reservoir. What tools will I need to pull these parts? Anything else I should pull off of the truck for the hydro boost conversion? Thanks!- WrecklesCustom

I love the look of the Scout 80 so much more than the 800 or II... Also, I am thinking about giving it to my girlfriend when I am done with it... She has a LEAD foot so there is no need for big power for her!! oh and one other thing... this one is $500 doll-hairs!!- WrecklesCustom
