- The (front) bumper isn't at least as wide as the windshield. - Only minor fender trimming is allowed. I don't think the high-lined fenders would be considered "minor". - Tires cannot extend beyond the bumpers. Not sure if this applies, though. - Tire coverage is borderline in the rear and there's too little coverage up front. I adore this rig, but as it sits, it would need some revamping to be C1 legal. Just wanted to point it out since the topic was brought up. | |

Thanks Shinjari, and yes the Soft top rig looks huge due to its axles, wheels and tires. Quote:
Thanks Colby. Thank you Quote:
With that being said, I doubt me or this rig would get very far running with other C2 rigs. I'll have to use my Double Cab Hilux for C1 once I change the wheels or put on fender flares. | |||

No updates, I did get the BEC soldered in place. Weather permitting I'll try and run her Sunday.
