Great vid. It reminds me of a slow motion arial shot of a Dakar Rally race.

I think you need to rework that suspension a little. Even with the TLT shocks you should be able to get more flex out of that truck because of the weight if you mounted then differently.

And I have to comment on the song for that video. Are you still stuck in the 80's? I bet you still have a mullet!

Crap - above link gets me

there's nothing wrong with a little def leppard...don't like it? turn the volume down. I just wanted something kinda mellow for the soundtrack. hard to please everyone...and I have NEVER had a mullet.

and the suspension just got a reworking and flexes a lot better now...see the newest pics above.

It was actually your first vid with the death metal that gave away your still having a mullet. I turned off the sound for that vid but actually listened to the def leapard video. I was just giving you ****.

I have deployed my RCC spy to GA. to find out for sure. Somehow I just don't believe that your not sitting behind your computer screen with a mullet and a def leapard half T showing off your beer can holding shelf of a belly.

That looks good but I think it would look killer if you could lower the body a little so when it articulates the tires go up in the wheel wells more.

hahaha...a half shirt!!! hahahahaaaaaaaaaaaa...that was a good one. here is the only pic I have available of me...my hair is all one length...(in a ponytail here)



so enough with the mullet talk.


anyways I just took the shocks off and now the tires go all the way into the fenders...even rubbing on the flares a little...I need to find some better shocks or rework these and my upper mount a little... and the first vid has metallica...hardly death metal.
