Well everything went perfect. Not one single problem and from what i understand it was not that much of a challenge. Eric says it hauls ass and climbs great. He has tons of pics but here are a few he asked me to post.

That thing is "Sic" Really nice work.

Do you have to pull a dukes of hazzard to get out of that? Looks like the nerfs get in the way.

Consept and creation by john reynolds.Axels and brakes by Jack at C.T.M.

Hey Eric do I get a bitchin Fat City sticker for the Cruzzah???

Looks like it should do the trick. : )
What size tires are those ? How much ground clearance at the belly ?
From the stance it looks like it should handle well at speed.

I love the overall look....low, wide, but with plenty of clearance where it matters, all that techno wheeler mumbo jumbo wrapped in classic sheetmetal....nice! Good luck with your new toy its a beauty.

Eric is amazing with the steel. <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">

Yes, but the sheet metal is fastened to the frame via dzus clips. It is a very nice rig. Congrats again john.

Nice work. I like. The problem now will be finding enough challenging trials to use it on. <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">

What about me???

I'll be here, I can't wait to tell you about all the chicks I boned in the desert, while crawling this rock the size of a building...

what time? I have kids that want to trick or treat at night so i can only get in the way around 9:30 am-11:00 am.

It'll be in the afternoon because I have a lunch appointment at 1 pm. Might come up today though if it remains this boring.

I did a search and I know that the tires are 42", but I was wondering if the backspacing or width of the hummer wheels had been altered to work with the 'Mog outers. I'm looking at running the same tire/wheel combo on axles from a 404 'Mog, and I wanted to make sure that the 42"s will work on the stock width hummer rims.

Thanks in advance

Cajon,

Jack at CTM did some pretty extensive machine work to both the wheels and Mog outers to make it work. On a scale of five wrenches, it's a fiver.$$$$$
