Post your LIFTED 2WD setup & how you use it!

[vegas hoe]

well i have a stock 02 tahoe 2wd with my torsion bars cranked. i have about 2" of lift in the front and the rear is stock height. in the pic it looks higher in the front but it is really about the same.
i use my truck to haul crap and drive off road. not anything crazy off road but places that my 90 crx can't go. the pic was taken at lake mead here in las vegas. there is a dirt road that you can take all the way to the water. i'm not saying i needed a truck to get there cause i've driven a 04 civic si to the water before, but in the civic i had to go really slow, in the tahoe i was going about 25mph

had a great time and this is the first place i've gone "off road" with the tahoe since we got it 3weeks ago.
i'll be getting the fabtech 3" lift spindle soon then i'm gonna get some spacers for the back to bring it back to level.

lol hell yea theres a decrease, but like I said before if youre driving at night and theres no cars around use your brights, and if there are cars around its usually lite up enough that it doesnt matter........
Ive managed so far, Im defintely going to look into how to get more light out of them, wether it be going to a brighter bulb or what I dunno.

I just joined so idk how to put a picture yet but i have a 2006 silverado 1500 crew cab. I just added 32" wrangler a/t tires and will soon put a 3 inch rough country spindle lift. hopefully i will eventually get a add-a-leaf kit for the rear and spacers for the front. I plan on using my truck mostly on roads but on weekends and after schoool i like to go to the camp and cut up on the trails and in muddy fields with my friends.
