purpose of lifting a 2wd

[87swb]

i just wanna know why some people lift 2 wheel drives and put mud tires on them. i mean there's nothing wrong with them and they look good but do they go through mud like a 4wd. can they outmud a 4x4 since their lighter?

nope, i tryed to mud my 92 f-150 and just barley got in to the mud whole when i stoped dead in 4-5" of mud. My other truck could walk right through still in 2wd (though its 4wd). both trucks have similar tires
