You need to get him to get do a video of a 4x4 burn out in a tracker. I bet that V-8 could eat up some rubber.

What did he put in there?

In your first pic it looks like you've got two spring hinges at the top back of the grill.  ?

I gotta hand it to you, that was a VERY clever solution.  Probably one of the more minor obstacles you had to overcome, but still..  Nice.

yep that was a minor one but after you make the motor mounts  and rewire the whole truck and make everything fit , something small like that was easy, i cant wait to get back to work on this thing, though ill probably sell it and buy a mog. went like snot all the way to 50 km(suzuki gearing 5.13/1) so ill go even better with 35s and the toy axles. the suspension was a fun build. thank goodness the military paid for most of it ;D
