    Here's mine. It's been a bit of an evolution but the truck has performed better than I could have hoped in all types of wheeling that I've tried. It's a bit of a mixed bag for sure. It's not set up as a dedicated overland truck, and it's obviously not a dedicated rockcrawler or high-speed desert runner but has a decent mixture of mods to handle all of those environments with adequate results.

    Phase 1
