The pictures don't do it justice.

Very cool truck , with lots of mods that are on my wish list.

rogerr that bro!

The truck was built by James Hoogevin. He did the coils and 80 series diffs. Very good job and a credit to his workmanship. I got James to mount the Hydro winch and pump, It (pump) has since been changed a bit for more speed and pulling power. I have also had more bar work fitted to save the body work . I have a list of mods to do to the truck in the near future, but its to much fun to drive to have out of action for to long.
Wayne.

Probly, I live 10k away from Thomos, In TeAroha, So we go up there quite often.
You can here it from 20k away now, I tore the exhaust half off yesterday , Got hung up on a big rock up the Stadia track !

Hi Wayne ,It was good to catch up aty Stadia yesterday and meet TinTin ,Your right about hearing it 20km away we heard you going up the hill on the way home for ages ,If your interested i see a guy on Trademe is still selling Carbon Credits i think you used up a years worth yesterday ,At one time there when you were towing that Jeep out of the mud hole your truck was perfectly camouflaged in Black smoke . ,We were quite happy with the new mods on my truck seemed to go well enough during the day once Rotorua is over in 4 weeks we will have to organise a run through Thompsons or somewhere...

TinTin and I went most of the way through today for something to do . 2x winches to get to the corner with the narrow ledge, 1hr to there and turned around and drove all the way out no winching and no lockers.

Hi Wayne

I was wondering what size tyre you are running and also every one comments about hearing you coming from 10-20 k away, Do you have a straight pipe ?
Sounds like you had a fun weekend.


Cheers Richard

YEP, Straight pipe.plus turbo makes a bit of noise , hehe , specialy with the gas turned on . 36" Simex's on 10"beadloks.

hey buddy out of all the lux's on here this is my fav(besides mine of course), seems like a very well balanced vehicle, good wheel base, power, strong diffs, coils, fast strong winch, sweet...
