Re: DragNasty, TowNasty, and Friends

^^^Funny!!

Chase- Nice to see you here. When I first became a member here- I saw a pic of Pig Rigs Dually, and then a few pics down a pic of TowNasty on the first page of the Crew Cab thread, and that was it. I had to have one. Hopefully one day i'll get it looking half as good as y'alls.

Re: DragNasty, TowNasty, and Friends

Thanks leedogg. Im in Camilla Ga (southwest ga). TowNasty had a dana80 and was stock with factory width fenders, just stretched taller bc of the drop. PigRig is correct, I found a wheel with the right offset to be used on duallys without narrowing the rear end or widening the fenders. Trevor at Tennessee Wheel & Tire named them the "townasty" after me and has sold quite a few sets. They require some milling and polishing and cost more than a standard wheel, but to me, the results are worth it.

The front wheels were extensively milled as well as the upper and lower control arms shortened 7/8".

Yea, stock floored 4". Thats why the front end was built that way. I ride REALLY low so it tucked lug nuts at ride height.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
