Fish Chris In A Craigslist Ad...

just saw this on CL....weird.

the price they want for the 'lift kit' is ridiculous, and most likely a scam lol.

if i was chris id definitely make these guys take the pic of my truck off their crummy ad ha

You may not have noticed that this is an *installed* price?

It doesn't matter. It's still a crazy prize. What they are selling is a leveling kit, not a true lift kit. It's only ~$100 worth of parts RETAIL, so they are charging $650 for an install that I can do in my shop in a couple hours.

But a lot of people that dont know anything about trucks are thinking wow I can pay $750 and get huge tires and have a big truck. Complete scam but Im sure they get business if cause theres always enough idiots that dont do there homework and think there getting a deal.
