Re: Any one know this trials truck
It was built in the late 90's and got 2nd overall in 03'-04' I believe, since then has gone under various owners and had some mods put in like the Fox Shocks which are too big for the truck which increases its chances of it rolling over 

Re: Any one know this trials truck
Ray hill was selling his truck for under 20k from taranaki , I think it won a bout 3 or more rounds a season ago could be worth a look
Re: Any one know this trials truck
It only won the Windy City round in its last season before he brought the new truck, though it is a bit awful looking with the high visibility sticker all over it

$14k for a set of Kumho 833s with a free truck!

Re: Any one know this trials truck
I find it a wee bit pricy considering the age of it, which shows, and the Maxima isn't the most powerful V6 you'll see moving around.
Does flex quite nicely though and those Kumho's are heavily worn and are just there for show as far as I'm aware of.

Re: Any one know this trials truck
Theres always that baby blue truck on tardme.
Overpowered with euro rubbish I believe.
Only driven on sundays by a little old nana
Spends most of its time in the air, so in theory its hardly been driven
Our local "trials" expert may know a bit more about it

Re: Any one know this trials truck
The fact of it now getting modified at dad's work leaves me knowing a fair bit about it
, has loads of power when you put your foot down but hard to tell if it is competitive or not as they can't drive consistently, wouldn't be the best as a club/bush truck due to the small fuel tank.

14" Fox stroked down to 10" now so it doesn't overextend and roll as much as when fox were originally fitted.
I co-drove for him in its last outing, loads of grunt and climbs really well!!
He has another truck now and "Make me an offer you might be lucky" from trade me, says he's wanting to get some shed space back!
Dogg.
It's just more fun in a lada !!
Re: Any one know this trials truck
It ran 10" when it had the Bags in it, since the 14" shocks are de-tuned to 10" I guess it wont roll over as easily!
, The LWB helps spread the weight and (helps it) climb hills and the P76 has the reliable amount of torque you need. It still has had some heavy rolls which once required the truck to be partially rebuilt by the previous owner, the current one has had some DNF making rolls, one of which being at the first round.
I think it is now suffering from old technology e.g. narrowness and a high centre of gravity etc

Re: Any one know this trials truck
I think it would be best to call the owners and see if their truck is the right one for your needs.

This would be good for a bush truck as it can fit a spare wheel and spares in the back while

Were built for trialling and club champs and only be half-good for those events as both have aged and since long out of their prime.

Re: Any one know this trials truck
Someone mentioned before that Hilly's old truck was still for sale, it had a Lexus V8 powering it and it was around 15-20k when it was last on there.
