Two people tried to push the vehicle over from the rear bumper high spot and it didn't budge.

Ballast is good.

Front tire lift. 48"

While your down there could you check the oil. :D

All these are at full street pressure. Mike thinks I could get another 5 inches at trail pressure.

Again people tried to push it over and it's not going. :D

hey, you could drive up onto brutus' tire :D :D :D

fawking SWEET man, is she done yet?

SIMPLY FAWKIN BITCHIN MAN! Very nice, unique and elegant...Just the way it should be! Congrats!

Now go get it! :flipoff2:

--D

WOW!!!!!!!!!!

Just too sweet!! I'm speechless!!! WOW!!!


Ok I'm better now.....Couple of comments.

It looks like only MINOR fender trimming needed, which is impressive to say the least!!

What's the chrome cylinder on the rear axle for??

And I'm assume a full cage is going in...SAFTEY FIRST..well second in this case ;)

This is seriously one of the best rigs I've ever seen on pirates bar NONE!!!

kinda looks like a remote res for the coilover shock?

It appears the rear coilover res's aren't attatched, just hanging??? I'm guessing you were doing clearance and binding tests and still have minor issues, looks kick ass!

MAKES MY PETER GO HARD!!!!!!!!!!

I THINK IVE SAID ENUFF

Wow that thing came out badass! I kinda dig the whole Amigo body u just don't see that.

Damnit, I hate getting shown up by an Amigo! ;) (by a lot)

That looks fawkin awesome Belly. Congrats!

Yes we did....Thanks they look like they are going to work great:D

Hot Dang! Looking GOOD! Impressive :D

That is awesome! YO AMIGO!:D

Badass!!

Ok I'm not gonna make fun of any Isuzus ever again. Well, I'll never make fun of yours anyways. Nice work

That thing is absolutely gorgeous. I really do like the way the amigo body looks riding on those big meats. That is also a great balance of flex between the front and rear. You will have to post action shots as sson as you have them.

many :beer: :beer: to you

Damn That Thing Is Sweet.

I knew it was going to turn out just right.

Tell Mike ATTA BOY for me. :D

Got rear steer?!

It'll never work

Just looks like another Xterra to me :rolleyes: :flipoff2: Nice work man ;)

Dion

All that $$$ spent and you can only afford 4 of 8 lugnuts. :D

Looks GOOD!!

While I'm not a fan of riceballs, you guys have definitely put some good ole' American ingenuity under that there jap sheet steel.

VERY nice work guys!

I wouldn't mind seeing some detailed shots of the suspension linkages/pivots/etc at rest and flex.

cm "color me green" k

My XTerra will out-wheel that any day.

<---- But first, can someone come pull me out?


I WANT ONE!!!

Thats sick! Nice work man.

sweet rig!

hey, i haven't been following along too closely on your buildup but why is the rear not a normal 4-link ? was it because of space constraints or ??

- jack

Looks like a factory chopped toyota pickup on steroids... I like it!

what's not normal about it? It has two lower links from the axle tubes to the frame, and triangulated uppers to the top of the differential. Seems like a pretty normal design to me...

Currently I have Binder Fever, now ya go & give the VIRUS . Looks really good, now if youll excuse me I have some AMIGO shopping to do. :usa: :flipoff2:
