AesC10s · 05-14-2006, 06:11 PM

HOLY F***IN S**T that is bad ass!!! more details please

**FRENCHBLUE72** · 05-14-2006, 07:19 PM

Ok here goes my best shot..... was a 2wd converted to 4wd had 60's front and rear built, 500hp big block ,4 speed trans and 205 case. 38'' swampers on weld wheels fourlink in the front with psc full hydro steering setup(see bracket on front diff) full alpine stereo and new bench seat. frame is fully boxed and gloved with plug welds........detroit in back and not sure whats in the front.. fox coil overs...

**FRENCHBLUE72** · 05-14-2006, 07:20 PM

oh ya its fuel injected too....and its gonna be a silver color?? its also on a newer frame..

AesC10s · 05-14-2006, 07:52 PM

i was lookin at the pics a little closer, and noticed that the area circled in red might be a problem. it looks like if he were to flex at all that the upper link bar would hit the body mount. sounds like this is gonna be 1 hell of a wheelin machine tho.

**FRENCHBLUE72** · 05-14-2006, 08:00 PM

It comes close to the mount but does not hit we had it flesed out friday with a hyster..

AesC10s · 05-14-2006, 09:12 PM

sweet does it have alot of flex?

**FRENCHBLUE72** · 05-14-2006, 11:08 PM

Its got some flex but the rear tires come off the ground before the front shock bottoms out..

AesC10s · 05-15-2006, 01:53 PM

is it just gonna be a mud truck?

**Yukon Jack** · 05-15-2006, 03:50 PM

**FRENCHBLUE72** · 05-15-2006, 05:25 PM
