There is no end to your wallet is there? Looks like it will be a good build. Oh, and on your sig, it says you are getting the bruiser today. Are you still getting it? If so, i want to see pics.

Went on a trail ride with a few guys today. Here are some pics that I took today. The stacks in the lift were just stuck in and need to be fit for good! They look so great on it. Now I just need a front bumper, LOL. |

| Tires are off of Jakks Flywheels from Walmart, Toys R Us, etc. They have been discontinued for a while so the only way to get them is ebay or on the forums I just got a new set of Highlift tires and I tried those, and the Goodyear Wranglers actually seem to work better on rocks even though they are a good deal harder. In loose dirt the Highlift tires would be better as the Goodyears do not self clean well. |
