Just went through the whole thread for the first time...Big Thumbs up!!!! The 1:1 pics are killer and the build totally matches up and exceeds in some cases! As for the tires...I love the iroks. The swampers are sweet. The pitbulls are saucy, but the Claws with the lug haircut are my vote!!!!! I can guarantee my claws will not look the same from this point on! Great thread, great build!!!

WOW! THE WHOLE THING? Must have taken some patience. And thank you for the generous words. Thank you very much. I still have the claws and will keep em for a rainy day. That trim job in loose dirt is unstopable! And thx again!

Da Bulls look killer! Can't wait to see how they do today on the lava. If they work as well as they look, might have to get some.

Thx larry! And they sure do make the rig look aggressive. I have pretty high expectations of these. I recomend these to anyone.

If it weren't for the drivers and axles, I would think it was a 1:1! Those pitbulls do look sweet on there! Awesome pics!

Gotta say I was impressed by these tires. Didn't know you were taking pics while I was thrashing around behind and below you. Anyway, I may just have to get a set of these, one day.


That was a fun day on the rocks Travis and I only broke one small thing on the EB. Later at Pillbox, I broke a couple things on my other rig.

some more pics of the center console/trans cover.. rear bed is dropped 3/8ths of an inch down to the frame and all is a nice snug fit.
the bed deck is bolted to the frame and the rest is attached to the body and even tho they are 2 seperate pieces the fit is great.

any help or suggestions on paint? i was thinkin yellow or a nice deep orange. not sure tho..

trying to get a hold of trenton to get a 3link truss w/ panhard for the front.
