How well does it stop with those huge tyres :?:

If work is so terrific, why do they have to pay us to do it?

I am looking for a company who sells or can make a retractible side step.
I can find many. But they are useless since they fold down like 10/15cm max. I need A step that comes down more close to 50cm.
Does anyone know who i can contact?

Boeing or Learjet?

Or maybe GE or Lieherr? :lol:

Flares to go on the guards will be a bigger challenge, there's nothing strong enough to bolt onto.

You are right. I an now working on the flares. They have to be so wide that i am also afraid it all breaks.

So i think i am going to widen the truck bed for the rear. And going to make front fenders come out more. So i can use standard size flares. Instead of flares that need to stick out 40/50cm.

Awesome truck mate.

awesome truck ! check out Lippert in the USA - not sure how expensive freight will be... :o

they have several different sized electric operated units with inside controller but no doubt can be interfaced with your central locking or another remote.

Gonna change all gear ratios. Getting all gears custom made.

1 will become 5.78
2 will become 3.10
3 will become 1.94
4 will become 1.35
5 should become 1.0 But we make it 0.90

Reverse 5.0
