front hood kills it for me -
I would have to split ways with the wife and sell my town house....
Tempting, Very tempting.
It would definately get the proper skins for sure.
Goatman said:I'm starting a new thread for this one guys, so have at it.
You said we could have at it.
Now that I posted the all the build pictures I have lets talk some tech. I'm sure everybody can probably learn something just from the pictures. They speak Advanced Fabrication just by looking at them.
So let the discussion begin.

Awesome attention to detail. How much does it weigh? It looks heavy. How does it compare to professional desert race trucks weight wise?

Since it is built with 4130 chromoly tubing the tubing can be thinner then DOM.
As for comparing weight wise I'm sure it's on par with the other trucks in its classes.
Weight is different when your truck must withstand 1000's of miles of all out abuse. Strength and durability are more important. The suspension can be set-up to deal with whatever the weight is. It's probably lighter then alot of trail rigs out there.
Trophy trucks can weigh 6500 pounds and are down right wicked.

Very interesting steering design. I wondered about it when I saw it mounted under the front axle tube, but then I see they moved it to the top of the tube. Very ingenius way to allow for a ton of front axle travel without having steering issues. Of course, maybe this design is more common on desert trucks and I just haven't seen it before.
Any info on the motor?

I thought the steering was well built and outside "the box" design wise.
The more you look at the pictures the more details you see...
