Now for some pictures. Unfortunately, I can not seem to find any pictures of the truck in it's stock form. Oh well, they were not much fun anyway.

Not really a pre runner as it is a 4x4.

prerunners can be 4x4.

 

[Toms01PSD]

Yes, prerunners can be 4x4. If you look closely though, you can see that he's no longer 4x4, the front CV's have been removed, along with the axle i'd assume.

Damn thats a good looking truck.

 

[Quasi242]

Thanks for the compliments. Prerunners can be 4x4. 4x4 actually comes in handy when you are checking out a race course. During a race, you can power through silt, sand and rocky sections. During a prerun you are often traveling at a slower rate of speed and are more likely to get stuck in challenging areas. 4x4 also comes in handy when the 2wd prerunners get stuck.

I am 2wd right now, as I need to regear the front differential to 4:88. Axles will be reinstalled once I can regear the front end.

Damn dude, that is a beautiful rig. Love the places you go wheeling, too, would LOVE to take my bikes out there.

Stuff like this makes me want to make my Ranger and offroad truck.

 

[c_note]

yup, a pretty sweet rig. this is the route i should have gone. a cantilever rear suspension would be awesome too!

Still sitting in my garage, looking for a good home.

All over. In order of appearance: Florence, Sedona, Jerome/Mingus, and Tucson. Lots of cool places to explore out here.
