Talking Cant resist... My 6x6 Build

This will be another one of my long and slow builds but I almost have all the parts.

Specs:
Unimog body
High Lift tires
Hummer wheels
High lift tranny

Planning on:
Diaz springs maybe?
full flat bed
winch
working lights
Front and rear steer

Will hopefully be making progress soon!

Some very very early mock up shots just taken

Nope. I still have mine. Thinking about getting rid of it though.

This build should be very cool Nluv, can't wait to see it finished.

Thanks guys Leave it up to you two to let everything to to hell.

Actually if school doesnt slow down some this whole build will have that "camo" look, because it will never get done I have had the two tlt kits setting there for months, still havent built the axles for this... I really cant wait to get it done.

Middle axle is almost done! Took an entire kit to do this

Feel sorry for Unimoger and MG with the 8x8, took alot of shaving and grinding.

Thats it for now.

Made a new plate for the tranny to drop the motor. Also started mocking up the axles and the high lift frame. Hopefully have some more updates this weekend

Looks like a great start. These 6x6's and 8x8's are sooo awesome. I can't wait to see it done and out on the rocks.

Just remember to flip the third axle upside-down to compensate for the reverse rotation of the second axle's output shaft
