I'm a sucker for the old school 'yota bodies so you get my vote

Wow those 1.5 Claws mounted nicely on those wheels. I'm predicting tons of flex in the rear with that shock setup. I know having the shocks like that lets you get the body low without having to cut the bed for the shock towers, but just how low are you going to mount it?

Thanks guys! Yeah love the look of 1.5s on the 1.9 wheel. For flex it isnt crazy Id say its the perect amount for what im doing with it. The body is mounted for a low stance look and tires barly rub. Heres a pic of the flex. Will keep you guys posted

That seems to be a nice feature of the Yota, a great looking rig with a wide variety of shoes. Lookin' forward to seeing some crawling pics.

Those are 1.9 Iroks, right? Do you think you could post a diameter measurement of them without any weighton them?

Yeah, I was wondering because the mounted size is usually smaller than what the specs say. Thanks for taking the time.
