your desert racing? Thinking about tackling the baja 500 or 1000 when it comes up?

awsome truck you got there and long travel is awsome. Is it still 4wd or 2wd I don't see any front Cv shafts or anything but could be wrong.

Also you should go check out TTORA they have a very big prerunner following and lots of info over there

and congrats on one of the sickest pickups out there

That looks like a fun little truck. Too bad it is summer time and the deserts are too hot to try it out.

If anyone in San Diego wants to check out my truck in person, I'll be at the El Cajon car show on Wednesday night for their off-road madness show.

Looks pretty sick! I'm hoping to start a build like that myself, I just need to figure out where the heck to store it and work on it since I don't have a garage anymore!

Are those 63" chevy springs? My brother just got a nice 86 2wd, like yours, and I'd love to start hooking it up like that. Very impressive truck!

That take-off angle is horrible! Cut that back bumper some.

Simplicity at the moment. The cost to output is not worth it. Next motor is going to be a 3.4 unless I can find a decent 4.0!
