reminds me of Kelderman Air Ride..if you ever have a chance to drive a kelderman air lifted truck..DO IT!..i drove a 2003 dodge 1ton 4x4..it had the biggest lift they make for it (cant remember how tall it was..it was quite the climb to get into it..even with the truck lowered) and it had 46" michelins..yes..it was a beast..and with over 600hp it was really quite fast for 46's..lmao

Hey, SEARCH, meet Sarcasm. Have you met Sarcasm before? No? I didn't think so.

did anybody watch the yeti concept truck video after that top gear video was done playin. All that work and it has open diffs. I thought it was better to "float" on top of snow not cut through it with pizza cutters. What a pile o $#!! if ya ask me.

That Hilux is cool though i think it would be fun to play with till u roll over and bust one of those hydro things

x2. That thing was retarded. I couldn't see for sure, but was there any rear susp. at all?? I couldn't see anything, just the driveline hitting the axle and then just the hubs. Plus it was a DODGE!!

Pretty sick Hilux though.

tomkoas · 07-26-2009, 05:47 PM

that thing is sick. sounds like the deisel. it's kinda cool to see the hydrolics used for a rock crawler

yodathespian87 · 07-27-2009, 12:44 PM

Yeah this was over in the suspension section a while back but still cool to watch. If you are looking for some cool vids check out marlin crawler over on youtube plenty of cool vids.
