I love the way it looks. I'd take a 4x4 any day of the week, but this is just as good. Solid axle and IFS both have their pros and cons. IFS can take dirt whoops nice and easy, but isnt very good for something like rock climbing because you can wedge easily. Solid is good for stuf like rock climbing for more stability, but is terrible when it comes to whoops and stuff. Thats why all rock climbers are 4x4 solid axles, and most trophy trucks are IFS, most of the time 2x4. In all reality, I can lift my truck 7.5". 4.5 with those lift spindles, and another 3 in with the lift coil springs. Plus an 18" wheel and some 36's or so. :D Sitting at about a foot of lift in the end!
