Exclamation Delta Crawler - This Is For The Real Bad A$$ 4x4

I was doing a lycos search for Toyota Hilux trucks and came accross this crazy Delta Crawler system. It is like tank treads for your truck!!! I have never seen anything like it. You have got to see this crazy stuff from Japan.

Enjoy,


Chris

Even better is this link with various examples of the system on everyday rigs that we recognize.

I just emailed the company, I am seriously thinking about this set up.

Those guys all seem to be going pretty easy on the throttle. I wonder how prone to breakage they are.

The treads look bad ass. I remeber when they did them on the Trucks! show way back in the day. I think it was a big lifted chevy they did them on? It was pretty nasty in the mud! Tires suit me just fine though.

My friends dad is getting a 4 door rubicon next year and he is putting those tracks on it in the winter so they can get to their vacation house. We are definitely mobbing it! If anyone is gonna be at The winter fun fest snow run in tahoe next year it will be there.
