Building the "BEAST"

Absolutely incredible.

 

Yeah this one is really expensive

I know I know

pull the front drive shaft out. I've done it before for giggles. You get to 52 in 4th before you get to redline. I wish I had it for pulling my boat out at the ramp.

 

Ok, so I must admit, after about page 14 I started reading every other page. I didn't see anything about extra HP or Torque. Did I miss something, or is this all OEM powered?

 

That is a great point. These trucks are seriously underpowered in stock form. However, with massive gear reduction in the crawler, it prolly does not matter that much since the gear reduction multiplies the little that is there and the crawl just happens.

 

I have spent the last 4 hours in pure amazement reading this thread! Not only the incredible work and talent from Wyatt but many others on this forum. This has been one of the most educational threads I have read. Thanks too all of you who have donated their knowledge and experience for the TW community. I was thrilled to death because I just ordered the OME lift and some new wheels and m/t's but now this seems as minor as changing an air filter in comparison to your build Wyatt. I couldn't possibly compliment your rig as much as it deserves! Thanks again!

 

Omg... Hes getting EMO

 

nope, just very thankful that wyatt was willing to go through all the work of posting everything up here. But I appreciate your accusation.

 

Anything new on the truck?

Did you get a chance to get a build thread up for this guy?

 

Phil dropped by the house on his way home from his epic trip. decide to get a few pics of the trucks together.







I'm on 40's and he's on Big 37's.

 

that runner is sweeeeeeeet. your shit aint that bad either

 

That's orgasmic! Where are the trail pics? Please don't tell me you guys didn't hit up a local trail.

 

Didn't have the time to wheel. I had just gotten home from a long trip and the water heater in my house had gone out that day too. Had a big list of honey do's to take care of.

 

beastly........ well done

 

What a bummer.

 

Yeah, I would have liked to go out but it just wasn't in the cards.

 

I was just playing around the internet and ran across Phil's Runner. Too cool. Do you know if he was in the print version?

Yes. He did get into the Magazine in the readers rides section. He is working on getting it lower than it is now.

 

Job well done Wyatt.... please keep it going.

 

When's the website due back?
