I had NO idea this was a thing, until I saw it on another forum in a thread called "worst automotive trends". I think this is really a regional thing, primarily int he south.

When I first put the lift on my Cruiser I was only able to do the front end the first weekend. Drove around like this for a week before I could do the rear. I think I'd take this over stance purely because of the vehicle itself. I mean I guess it kinda looks like you have a load in the back?

Good God. That's stupid.
Exactly what is the point of doing that? I see no logical purpose, Nor do I see any other function. Besides of course, making it look like an old Lincoln with broken air suspension.

This is the "ruined-Matchbox-car-rear-suspension-look" after my stupid cousins played with my toys. :-(

So I guess they really liked the broken rear air suspension on 90s K cars.

Number one, nice spelling in the title. Number 2, isn't this kind of like the west coast brodozers? (PS Brodozer is one of my favorite words. I always look for excuses to use it)

I hadn't seen this particular abomination until I spent last week in and around Atlanta. This is a valid argument for militarizing the Mason-Dixon line...

Well, at least these owners will have to fend off endless people pointing out that their rear suspension is collapsed.

It's kind of the reverse of that trend of taking a classic pickup and lowering only the front.

Yea no air ride but the springs are just worn after 130k. Civilian model so the spring rate is a little on the softer side from the factory

This was a thing with cars in the early 60's too. Gassers with a high center of gravity hooked better at the strip. Then it was emulated by streetcar guys that dialed out their ignition advance on an otherwise stock car to give it a rough cammy idle. Didnt matter to them that they were slower. Kind of like a 4wd truck that doesnt offroad.

Totally just found a link to this today. . . But, this shit has been around forever in SoCal with the fiberglass fenders and the “prerunner” look. It is to feign that baja offroad racing trophy truck look. . .

Those are extreme examples, but we’ve had this in Florida for years. It’s called ‘bulldogging.’

Seems like anytime someone lifts a truck, the front comes out higher than the back.

I get why this is ridiculous, but stick some drag radials at the back and some frontrunners on the front and you’ve got a gasser truck:

Think of all those people rolling around in Navigators with failed rear air suspensions who are now going to be mistaken for squatters.
