Hey tob,
What have you done to your new. I don't care about rear seat or cage. I am talking wheels/tires, seats in the front, suspention? I won't have mine for a couple of months.

YOU FOUND THE ITCH AGAIN ....COOL, GLAMIS WILL BE FUN THIS YEAR. WE WILL HAVE TO DO A BIG H/B RHINO GET TOGETHER SOON. I did a set of ELKA shocks, no longer A-arms or axles. A little paint, rear seats/cage. a little powder coating on the cage, bumper and some other pieces, Digital dash, steering wheel, Black Rhino CDI box. wheels/tires, Dropped it off at WIRED FOR SOUND for a few weeks worth of stereo and fiberglass mod's... Just the basic's

I had those on the first one I built, which is now RiverRoyal's ride. "IF" you add a rear cage and seats they will rub the black fender skirts....SO you will need to have them trimmed back a few inches. ALSO someone said that the larger tires and wheels REALLY hurt the performance out in the dunes. I havent had our new one out there yet, so I cant speak from experence. Heres a pic of the new set-up I have on the newest build....

bought the 12" polished ITP's and had them sent out to OMF for the beadlocks. Tires are the ITP 589's 26" tall on the 12" wheel. I have heard that if you air way down, its easy to roll a tire off the wheel, because of the heavy weight of the vehicle, hense the beadlocks. Here is a pic of the 14" set-up thats pretty popular right now.

Sounds like a little more then I will do. I will do the samething I did to Deanos. Wheels/Tires all Alum. Skid plates and this time I will do the digi dash. I may paint this one, not sure yet. Would like to paint it red to match everything else, but was thinking of match painting to my boat. Then when I throw it up on the back of my toter and hook the boat up it would just look SICK! Im getting ready to buy a bigger flat bed so I can get my baja, new bikes and Rhino to the desert.

I NEED PICTURES! I don't want to copy it but I really want to see one all done in red! I am on my eleventh truck in red, red is my color!
Does anybody know how durable the paint is? My green on e had a couple of scratchs in the plastic so I was afrad to paint it. I will use mine for desert not so much sand.
