Nluv, yet another stellar build, increadibly scale and I love the t-case that you made WORK, awesome idea! I caught a sneek peek from badger before the comp, so I was anxiously checking the nor-call site for pics. Looks like it did very well on the rocks. congrats, nice work!

Thanks Ben! I have some more pics of it on the rocks at my house, but I didnt even take any pics while I was there, I know Brian did, and im glad he posted that one. My only complaint about the truck is its way too heavy, cant really climb anything very steep, and I dont want to add MORE weight to the front but I need to do something because its bad lol.

Im also thinking about picking up another FJ body somehow so I can have one painted on the inside so I dont have to worry about rolling it and scratching the paint on the outside!

T Case works great. I went through in detail how I used its reduction to my advantage a page or two ago, but basically im running a TC spur gear (less teeth) and a 25-30t pinion, so it gives me a good speed in the end.

Lol you should see me when its about to go over on its top! nothing else matters I will have another FJ40 body soon that will get painted on the inside and used. Not sure if im going to hack the top off though...

Mike and BD, thanks for the compliments!!!

Sweet rig! I got a chance to see it at a closer look at the comp. It's even more impressive in person, love the detail. If you do another body for it maybe tint the windows or leave it clear, that would really set it off. What's the actual weight of your rig?
