    So after a little mix up at King, my shocks are ready, I got hooked up with finned resi's too. So big thanks to King Shocks and the guys down there, they are homies and I will for sure be running King badges on my truck. Second good news is Dirt Designs is taking my truck in after the race at barstow this coming weekend to set up a bedcage for me now that we have my bypasses in and we can finish the rear LT! :woot:

    17x9

    34" toyo so the wheels probably look big in comparison


    offering them with the bar or ill keep them if somebody just wants the bar and wants to save a little money, I want to get an amber dual row 50" for the roof eventually. :cool:

    Thanks

    Thanks Chris! I am super stoked with how it turned out, It rides really nice with only the front LT so i can't even imagine how the rear is going to ride.


    You of all people definitely need to get an amber bar! I've seen your build and it would be a perfect touch haha Thanks man I appreciate the love

    the 50 white is suuper powerful, it sent light way way far ahead but it was almost too much light for running trails and up in the woods. I could totally see needing the 50 if I was a linked and caged race truck pinning at 70+mph but I really like the amber because it is more useful to me. It is below the hood which means no glare and it cuts right through fog and dust where the white would be useless if it was foggy out. I wish I could keep both but I am building another carbon mountain bike and need $$$$:D

    Yup RJ said it, it's a custom Deaver by DMZ.. And Deaver won't share what exactly it is.

    :p it seems to be working out really well so far, it is extra painful when you start breaking things and scratching paint and what not. I like that my motor and trans are healthy and I know the history of the truck being the only owner.

    Bingoo winner winner! Let's mab
