Thanks Steve-O! D90s are pretty damn cool but the body is so damn big.
I don't know if you watched the video of the 1:1, but that dude drove it like he stole it.

Likin it, but one of your tires is mounted backwards, unless its the spare I see only a few bolts in the hub in which case forget I said anything

Are you keeping the sunroof?

I know about the backwards tire, I won't be running these boggers, I am holding out for some new 1.9 rox loc's. Yep, I am keeping the sun roof.
BTW, thanks.

I went to the LHS and a green color spoke to me.

Did a little test painted on a extra D90 body, I think I like it.

Toughest Landy I've EVER seen

Love it, really look forward to each new post!

Would look for a more fresh and/or radical color though... (black, white, orange, yellow...?)

I've build a far less radical Challenge truck in white >

You do amazing work. Just have to ask why there is a cow in all your builds.

Thanks man!

Well, the cow is perfect height for the skid plate to rest on for mockup(when I don't have the shocks tuned or mounted) and at my local WHL Hockey SilverTips games, “COWBELLS” are the noise makers…pretty funny to hear 8,000 people ringing cowbells.
