I just happen to have a couple of extra sams I need to do something with... ;D

the beauty of this is that Trail Tough will be offering this as a kit, or as individual pieces so you can buy what you need. Pretty much everything you see there will be available for purchase. the cage, the front clip, the rear body piece, the frame extensions, hydro assist steering etc etc.  That rig is sitting on 40" tires.

:drool:

(some x bracing for the cage is in order tho, IMO)

Man, are they trying to compete with their own sidekick kit they're offering??  That sami is pretty large.

It looks very meaty, but does not appear to offer enough protection for the windshield frame.

It's not an exo cage

it's also hardly a "cage" ... I mean turtle that (and not even hard) and I see a "headache".

(and yea, the windshield appears to be pinned for removal, so that could be pulled before the trail).

I like it - not sure if you guys could fit it into a street rig with stock body though ( anyone know for sure ? ) looks real clean. It looks like Trail Tough have done a bit more homework and dialed in the Instant Centre and Anti Squat figures a little better than the Kick kit too.
Once again using Yota axles too - a sensible move  ;D

For you trail only guys out there that can not fab stuff yourselves - this looks to be a great option  :D

Great work team  >:D

All that hardware, I'm curious...is it still a 1.3?

Not sure but just looking at the pictures the drivetrain looks like a 1.6 16 valve, Sidekick 2wd automatic transmission, Samurai t-case.

Just a swag...
