He has power tour'd it several times. He tows his race truck to events and still races the burb too. Back when he first built it, it had a MII type front suspension. He swapped back to a C10 front suspension. It has tubular trailing arms and the thing is an absolute rocket. Being around this thing made me a believer these frames will handle it. His is time tested as well.

Too bad the Dmax didn't fit under the high hump. There is very little info out there on what it takes to fit that drivetrain in one of these trucks. Cool build though.
