Where did you get that hood? I'd like one for my third gen truck. Looks really sweet and i'd like to make it semi functional for extra cooling of the engine compartment.

[Shamb]

Blatant know's how much I LOVE this rig.

lol.. if you'd take a partial trade for my rig i'd swoop on this in a freakin heartbeat!

If you ever get an urge for a older built std cab PU.. let me know bro!


I've said it before and i'll say it again, this is by far the nicest looking rig i've ever seen, I just love it!

[blatant]

Shamb: Thanks, again, man. It's a cool rig, I'm just ready for something different. No big deal either way; it's wheeling season here. 

As for the scoop, it's just an aftermarket scoop (like JEGS), grafted on a Toy hood.

Im curious as to how much articulation it has front and rear, you wouldn't happen to have any pics would you?

The rear shackle angle looks almost strait up and down, I know from personal experiance it hurts my truck with rear articulation.

[Yota4life]

Id have to say also this is one of the sickest runners i have seen in a while. You should keep it!

[blatant]

Thanks for the kind words.

[Shamb]

I'm gonna own this.............................   

I pm'd you by the way, i'm sure we can work something out 

[Scott39]

How well does that supercharger work on the 22re?
If you were closer to Denver I would be interested.

[blatant]

Works pretty well, but 5 pounds of boost is conservative. Denver's not so far, drive down and trailer it home.

[Shamb]

Find any pics with the soft top on and interior?

Maybe some articulation shots?

[blatant]

There's a bunch of interior pics on the yahoo link in the first post. I know I had some flex and shots with the top on, but they seem to have disappeared. I'll keep checking.

[blatant]

OK, found some older pics on my other laptop. Bear in mind, these are what the rig used to look like before the current tires, bumpers, winch, etc. But they do reflect how it looks with the full doors and soft top. Follow this link to check them out:

[toyrolet]

still not saying how much you want for it. never mind i se the price. should have read the whole first post huh .  awesome btw

[Shamb]

freakin awesome, I just love the way that think looked with those MTRS and soft top attached.

Sweet looking rig, how well does the driverside door close with the full doors on?  I see theres a bit more carnage on that side now and a missing plastic efi cover behind the driverside door.

[blatant]

The plastic cover just pops on and off; it was off in the pics, but it's not damaged. Don't think the driver's door seal is disturbed; the doors are over in my storage unit along with the top, so I'll go pick them up and reinstall them when someone buys the rig.

[Shamb]

Waiting for the guy to get back with me on the truck, we'll see how that goes!

If you get rid of it I suppose it just wasn't ment to be 

[blatant]

Sold. Thanks for all the interest.
