did u buy the walmart cxt with a 4 wheeler and everything included? and just use the body?

CLODZIRRA · 08-04-2006, 12:05 AM

That came out real nice.

makes me want to go spend the $$$ for a CXT. how long is the WB on your truck?

ColquittCustom405 · 08-04-2006, 12:05 AM

That really doesn't look bad,I like it.

Jeepernick · 08-04-2006, 01:03 AM

Very cool

BarCrawl · 08-04-2006, 04:49 AM

No silicone, wires ties or duct tape showing................looks good!

Any body can hack one of these up and call it modded.

Nice to see someone that obviously cares what it looks llike when it's done.

ArticMAXX · 08-04-2006, 07:14 AM

i cant remember what the wheel base is. its longer then the cxt was thats why i had to build a bed.

I have another cxt body comming as we speak, would anyone be interested in having it?

i am not through with this truck yet, im thinking bout building a toolbox, headeache rack, dovetail for the bed. and aluminum rock sliders on the bottom of the body.

can anyone else think of anything that would look really cool with this truck.

run2jeepn · 08-04-2006, 07:15 AM

That will make a cool Tow Rig

ArticMAXX · 08-04-2006, 07:27 AM

Looking good.

Best to keep the weight in mind. Too heavy and you'll snap those axles before you can press the gas. How heavy is it now? Do you plan to mess around with it or just for show?

jeepster69 · 08-04-2006, 07:35 PM

thats awsome. If i would have done it, i would have made it come out even with the body. JMO. It still look great tho.

ArticMAXX · 08-04-2006, 10:52 PM

was gonna do that, but would have limited flex. i can always build another later.

the truck is actually pretty dang light. its lighter then stock with all the alum.

i shed alot with the new body.

and yes, i will still be crawling this beast. i have put this thing is some crazy places and bound up really bad without breaking, hopefully i didnt weaken anything but so far its been unstoppable. i just gotta do the steering mod, with the long bolt cause my spindle that the arm mounts to is bending bad. was doing that before i even built the frame.

ArticMAXX · 08-06-2006, 12:25 PM

thanks, i might be selling this rig. dont know yet, someone give me some offers and i will see what i will do.

i may be putting dual rear wheels on it, will post pics when i do if i do.

who ever buys it will get the spare CXT body also. so let me know who would be interested in a full custom rock crawler or awesome tow rig.
