There are many aspects that are related to the sale of lifted trucks that have to be clearly understood. First of all, as said above also, driving the lifted trucks is not like driving a car. These trucks are very difficult to drive and thus, at the time of buying a used lifted truck, it should be seen if there is any deformity in the truck occurred due to accident etc. If there is so, it should be enquired whether it is possible to get it rectified completely or not. A person should go for buying the lifted truck only when he is quite confident that he can drive it safely because the person who may be hit by the truck would be badly injured and a person might have to give heavy compensation also. The next aspect that must be understood is that there are some legal requirements that are to the completed. For example, there is a maximum distance limit for the lifted trucks between the frame of the wheel of the truck and the ground. These vary from one country to another. Generally, this distance varies from 23 to 31 inches.

1988 GMC Sierra SLX review from North America

http://www.carsurvey.org/reviews/gmc/sierra/r124382/

"Bulletproof"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

The transmission locked up at 258,000 miles, original transmission it was.

Clutch went out at 256000 miles.

Rear end went out at 250000 miles.

Little stuff like shocks, headlights, brakes, clutch cylinder, slave cylinder, clutch line, rear brake lines, tires, not bad stuff.

General comments?

Overall, I love this truck. It is bone stock and will make it through more than a lifted yota on 35's. It is a 5-speed powerhouse that will spin through second. Laid the longest black marks ever laid in my life.

I have replaced everything but the engine almost! It was well worth it though; I love that truck more than anything.
