i was always curious as to why the designers didn't put the leaf spring and shock over the axle to get more ground clearance....

Stability, axle wrap and ride quality just to name a few.

TAINTER: I'd rather have you laugh than cry. I tend to be a pretty positive guy.

SC kit cost 6500.00. I had Livernois Motorsports purchase the SC kit, K&N air filter and the Magnaflow exhaust. They did the installation, tuning and dyno work. Total cost was about 8600.00, which included sales tax.

I'm going to keep my eyes peeled at the car shows when I go with my dad this summer. Flames came out nice. IMO you need a custom bumper on the back. She's all t***s and no a**

We are showing it at St. Ignace June 28-July 1 for the first time. The organizers up there are promoting it along with other vehicles done by Lenny Longuski and Steve Fairman. Steve is the airbrush artist and Lenny is a car builder from the Thumb Area who is the featured builder at the show this year. After that, the christening will be complete and we will be taking it to several other shows during the summer. We will also have it at Autorama in Cobo Hall next January.

What area of Michigan are you in?

Mixed feelings here on the board, but really nice H3 nonetheless! As another member pointed out- chrome won't stop you from mudding with it if you wanted to. Beautiful truck. Work of art. Enjoy.
