yea the narrowed rims make it look 10x better IMO. Post up some photos of yours then I ordered a bunch of LEDs and some other lights for the body, I also am going to have a matching spare stay tuned for that

Awesome! I have never seen this thread before. I love the WD21 body. I had an 88 years ago.

Cant wait to see the tire carrier. I just made one for a friends 1:1 Pathy.

Were did you get that interior? The dash is so close to correct. My 93 Hardbody has the same dash as my old 88 Pathy.

would ya believe the dash is from a Yota Its actually a Bruiser interior, I plan on building these with all my shifters and cages and other custom shiat some day... just have no time. Repro interiors are now even available, just picked one up and they are niiice

I figured you would like this truck , you should see my red pathfinder...well should have scene...its back to being just a body again Ill get to it some day

Ok its pouring out here but since I worked on this when I got home earlier tonight, I ran outside for a few pics... I wasNT digging the mashers..to tall/wide and they would reb the body badly... so on went the Moabs and I think the looks sick, nice and narrow with a puffy side wall I re located the high lift and mounted up the spare. The hole back of the body has a nice thin aluminum plate to support the wait of the tire not to mention the bodies are known to be thin by the rear body mounts and bumper so this will help keep it in perfect shape



Not bad flex either


a shot of the interior, through the window


I still have to add a beadlock ring to the spare, do the lights, and install my badass new chino cross member and trans mount

Can you point me to this trans mount you speak of? I hope to have a Bruiser chassis real soon and I have heard (read) that the trans area is pretty weak...

Well the stock trans isnt all that great if thats what you mean, its heavy, parts arent readily available and the slipper will soon start to slip unless you can find a Kyosho USA1 counter gear which are fawkin damn near impossible to find now a days too the stock cross member is useless and if you swap in a pede trans you will most certainly need some kind of custom cross member mount. Here is the one Dean made for me, he offset it so the drive shaft angles would be more equal and not as steep. I just got these yesterday, so I will be installing in the next day or 2. Ill post up some pics then.
