Default rockcock rubicon teaser.

figured i'd spam a real crappy picture of my scaler comp rig.

http://pics.montypics.com/badhoopty/...merockcock.jpg

i just got it back from powdercoating. its almost chrome, should bling quite nicely when its all done. sorry for the crappy image, my digi is packed away.

kinda wish i woulda went with a solid color instead of the chrome to be honest. hopefully when i paint all the side panels and the hood it will bring the bling down a notch...

anyway, just figured i'd put up a pic since i'm kinda bored. feel free to comment.

ok so i'm dense, i unnastand i think. chassis triangulation and not link triangulation right?...

its mig'd steel rod. it aint breakin or flexin. any more rod added to it would just be for looks and put way too much weight on an already heavy rig anyway.

btw rig is copied off this 1:1

Your links appear to have plenty of triangulation...

The "it needs more triangulation" comment is sort of an inside joke when referring to tubers..

Very nice TLT chassis.

What would it take to pry it out of your hands?

It is supposed to ALWAYS mean "kidding/sarcasm" but many people misuse it.

I think the chrome is bad ass, with the right color body panels that thing will be a big pimpin rock whip, Hoopty. I caint wait to see er done.
