heres another pic of my old truck,i took a picture of a picture again,,,cause my scanner is packed away,but itll give you the idea........
heh,dig that front plate,i lifted the front end up a chain wrapped around the bumper,using a cherry picker!! :twisted: :shock: the big ugly
Hillfolk'r,
No prob, no charge, buddy! But, I've gotta ask, how the F did you and how much did you lift that Caddy?!

i basically set it up,so the front struts sit "topped out",like picture your car when you jack it up,and the tires are barely touching the ground,,i cut the front strut perches off,moved them up 2 inches,and rewelded them,,i also used a2 springs in front,,,,,sears trailblazer 195-70-14s tires,,,,in the back i made 3 inch longer shackles,and 3 inch blocks,it took some tweaking to get the ride height right,so it wouldnt break outer left cv joints in turns,,and it handled funny,but looked cool
im usually a modest dude,but this tdiengine is awesome,so i have to tell every one,so they can build one too!!
you've convinced me!! im trying to sell this gas motor i just built so i can buy a tdi for my mk1 jetta!!
