Some new Pics of my Truck

Here are a couple of pictures of my truck out playing. We don't have alot of rocks in Nebraska! Keep in mind my sway bar is still hooked up, I am going to work on getting alittle more flex.

Now I know what a "truggy" is supposed to look like!

Is that street-legal?

I like it! Looks like a bug. Put a stinger on it just the right way and it'll look like a stink bug! LOL.

Bring it to south-central Iowa and come wheeling with us.

Maybe come to the Toyota event next year.

I think its awesome!

Are you still using factory T-Bars? I wonder if you would benefit from smaller ones (if they can even be found) since I would imagine this thing weights a lot less then a full bodied truck. That would give you more flex and a softer ride.

Just a thought..

Nice work though!

Good thought, Flex was not my main goal with this truck, but I seem to be drifting that way. Thanks for the good comments

Doesn't look like much of an approach angle with that winch hanging off the front end like that. It's different though.

The winch is being relocated inside the grill...The winch is there for pictures only...it is in way to low!

what is the point of that thing, i mean if you pay that much for something shouldnt it be more than just a toyota with a weird body on it, my ls 400 has more flex than that, if you rolled in that thing or got in an accident your straight dead
