Although it is similar in some respects, it isnt a bruiser. He made it from scratch, and just borrowed some of hte design ideas. Its actually quite different once you get down to it.

My guess is that this is the PSC rig you are thinking about?

Hey Josh, is that guy local? I'd like to find a local guy that could do some bumpers and sliders for my Toyota truck later this year.

As always your work looks great :P

Oh, so this is the rig your building.



I was wondering what you were building...you've been asking a good bit of questions lately.

Sweet a$$ 1:1 rig. If the truck your building is even close it will be bad a$$ too.

Ya, I have been trying to figure out driveline for this one so I have had new questions. Once htis one is done I have a big list of frames to finish.... but this one i building from start to finish. So, as of now drivetrain is going to be stock maxx tranny, revo shaft, txt axles, etc, and now is probably going to get imex all ts and rock ringed wheels. Thanks for the nice words, they're nice...

Finally done, with the exception of a set of servo posts missing in the rear. I am happy with it, hopefully the new owner will be as well...

That looks really nice. What is it the links and metal are coated with? In the photo under that flash, it looks like everything is plastic. The build itself is nice, down to the silver shocks, good details.

Everything is painted in primer grey. Thanks dudes. This was built for the owner of a fab shop in trade for a full 8 point cage for my cherokee. I'm stoked to see what my cage is gonna look like!

Very, very nice truck man. I love that color blue. And the small details really finish it up nice.
