Nice......looks like a good job well done.......

Hopefully they addressed the intercooler air flow obstruction from that bumper......and I know its not a regular highway vehicle too......

one of their first mods, they moved the intercooler and re-worked that entire truck. they have most of the build up on the website

i'm surprised this is the first mention of it on this website, they've been working on it for a while.

What a great build. The new IFS front end is tough. Definitely needed.

fixed it for you. it's not any where close to a stock front end, almost everything is modified.

I don't know if any one has watched the video for the 05? trip, for this truck to complete the entire trip it has to be HEAVILY modified to last.

Yeah, I love this truck been following it for several months now. and 06yz250f there is nothing stock anywhere on that truck its so sick! I didn't see the video but I'm pretty sure i read an article on it a while back.

I kind of dig that paint, in a that looks so sick, but i would never have it..

I get Petersons off-road mag. every month and they have been doing this for a while now. In fact they said the truck just does car shows now and will be a while before it hits the trail again. I hated the color but now that they said it comes from the GT40 I like it a little better. lol.

Part of the rules for this adventure is to be street ready, no towing or trailers allowed. This is a week long adventure where they hit several different offroad parks in several different states. It did thousands of onroad miles. Also the motor stayed stock.

I will have to look in my mag to remember what they did with the cooler.
