I'm guessing that thing is full width and the tires are never anywhere near the body.... cool. :)

Those are 38x11 inch boggers in front. Look at the marks left on the concrete.

And is that a drive shaft or exhaust I see hanging down in front?

Seems to me that it was this time last year Mike was talking about building another (full-bodied) trail rig and now it looks like he is going to build another boat.......:D

ok, here are the specs as of now, some of which will change next weekend, when it gets built up for calrocs. The tires are 38x11 boggers front, and 38x14.5 or 15.5 tsl's rear. The running gear is a waggy rear with a spool, full width chevy front. He'll be putting 5.89's in and a ?? in the front next week as well as doing coils in the front and ??? leaves in the back. It's hard to keep track, he has a new idea every day when I show up to work. This rig is strictly for bashing, so it's kinda like a mini brako. There will be plenty more sawzall work, the remainder of the top came off the other day as well as the factory windshield. The front fenders will be gone and more cage work will follow.

No on the tires... just wanted the tallest narrowest thing I could find and that was about it... wish they where tsls but yea its a beater....Went with tsls in the rear for side bite.....its being built to line up for the gate and drop the hammer and slice through the rocks.
