Ditto, whats with the body trim for the rear guards not even being close to the wheels, and the wheels being so close to one another, limits bigger rubber in the future too. Makes me wonder is his previous rig was actually built by someone else and now he thinks he can give it a go.

Be very surprised to see it even make it to the event successfully looking at it now, looks to redneck.

Cool idea but I think he needed the stock wheelbase with an extra axle added behind. Dont most 6x6 have control arms going from the middle axle to the rear axle? Not sure I just remember seeing one done like that. Also dont most 6x6 have a driveshaft from the tc to one axle then from that axle to the next? Again just saw a pic of this but seems the best way to do it.
Would be an awesome project to do properly but to expensive here.

agreed if he had done it properly both rear wheels would fit in the wheel well
and as for the inner guard fab work it is ridiculous a "REAL" sheet worker would have cut out the whole lot and added 1 folded sheet the length of the tub

If that side photo is as he says, "ready for paint" how is it even going to function when nothing lines up.
