I'm guessing that is strictly a display piece.... notice rear spring shackles and lack of front suspension.
It's still hack, but if it's just to get folks to notice a tire shop or an offroad park, it could work. I know I wouldn't want to dump a pile of cash into something that would never move. I think I'd spend more than that guy did, but not a lot more.

*edit* Now, if were advertising an offroad SHOP, that POS wouldn't be anywhere near it. Not what I'd want potential customers looking at thinking it was how we build. holy shit that would be STUPID!

Fixed, I know there are a lot of competent Fab guys in this state and I respect them. With that being said it's amazing what some people will do to get "them big tars" on their truck and then think it's safe to be on the street.

I've driven by it a few times on my way to River Rock, but I've been to the Dallas and Seney mud boggs. I'm not a fan of mud, but I like looking at a lot of the guy's fab work. It makes me feel better about my fab skills.:shaking:

As long as the suspension isn't cobbled together from 2' lift blocks or booger welds, idc man, it's the stuff that you can wait on it to fall apart that gets me.

I'm trying to get my rig and a buddies 81 Yota pieced back together in time for the spring crawl at River Rock, it's usually a great time with plenty of carnage.:smokin:

Hmm, if I only had one gauge, what would I pick. Oil pressure or temp.

I'm gonna assume it doesn't work anyhow so it'd be like having no gauge at all. Talk about a smooth dash without all those cluttered up gauges though :laughing:
