Re: Really? What is this?!

Lifted custom deluxe k20. Snorkel air intake. Roll bar, snap on tonue color and what looks like a plywood lid that folds down under the tonue cover. Guessing to keep (snow?) from caving it in. Truck also has a winch and off road lighting. Appears to be comparing rims to
Thigh truck now. Great looking truck.

Re: Really? What is this?!

I like the winch mounting, that is deffently thinking outside the box (no pun intended). The hood hold downs look like a cool alternative to hood pins.

Re: Really? What is this?!

Is that snorkel air intake so he can go deeper in water?

Re: Really? What is this?!

i was thinking he was comparing wheels/rims but at first they looked like they were floating off the ground and he some how was able to have a two wheel set up. thats really what through me off. the winch i like. Should of took a little closer look at it though.

Re: Really? What is this?!

Not sure what the purpose of the extra wheels bolted on alongside the other but other than that it's a pretty nice truck. maybe it's an alternative way to carry a full set of spares?

Re: Really? What is this?!

A snorkel has two uses for water crossings and in really dusty sandy places it helps keep the intake air cleaner.People in aus put snorkels on everything from semis to cars lol.
