I think its pretty cool but it would be cooler if he doved the nose to match the grill! I wanted to put it in the fav yotes but thought someone would get pissed thinkin I was screwin around. But I like it!

crawlerdan · « **Reply #366 on:** Feb 02, 2008, 06:36:55 PM »

Anything with 54" tires is always pretty cool in my book.... as longs as its built right

4 Wheeler Mags Titan with 54's:

94 GMC with 54's for mud bogging:

And anything with 54's is definatly unique

That VW gives me an idea:

Samurai drivetrain, VW diesel, VW body, fool the state and register it as a VW.

skipnrocks · « **Reply #370 on:** Feb 03, 2008, 03:01:14 PM »

Fool the state? Just for fun, or do you have something to gain from it. My jeep is all chevy but I used my jeep body and it saves me a ton in insurance and cause its over 11 I dont have to re-register it.

It's crazy that that picture's still floatin' around the net.I took that picture 2 or 3 years ago at the Rubicon.Cool thing is that truck started out as a lowered 2WD.

Yup,that's my buddie Tonka Joey.Actually back when it was featured it didn't have a Ranger body,it still had a standard cab long bed F-350 body on it.Last I heard it's new heart transplant (Duramax Diesel) will be done by TDS (March).

iNfErNaL · « **Reply #376 on:** Feb 04, 2008, 10:28:29 AM »

Here's a couple of old pics of it back when it had the full size F-350 body on it,you might have to get your magnifying glass out for a couple of them

This is back when it was Tonka 2.

iNfErNaL · « **Reply #377 on:** Feb 04, 2008, 10:34:00 AM »

And here's a couple of more recent ones (Tonka 3).

That thing is sick...I wish they would have kept the 54's on there but I believe they are back to the 46 claws.

skipnrocks · « **Reply #380 on:** Feb 04, 2008, 10:49:59 AM »

I dont know if their are many axles to handle a fulsize with 54s, guess they need rocks!

The 54s were only put on for testing.

They thrashed on it with the 54's and finally broke one of Bobby Longs new D60 CV;s, but it was an older model. They are upgraded to a new 300M cage, so far, no breakage.

Here's a cool Explorer.

skipnrocks · « **Reply #384 on:** Feb 04, 2008, 11:15:46 AM »

No breakage with the 46claws? their not runnin the 54s anymore correct.

MiniSimp · « **Reply #385 on:** Feb 04, 2008, 11:23:02 AM »

My old Dakota on 35's, not really cool, but unusual for IFS Dakota.
