Ohhh... its bad. Beautiful color and excellent craftsmanship. Only got to chat for a moment, but I hope you had a successful first run, and safe trip back north.

It went very smooth on its first trip out and 2nd as we went to WITC yesterday and got some more time on it :dblthumb:

this thing works awesome but I built it for Jerod as it's staying down in the south for the majority of its life ! I'm sure it'll be seen a lot more around

What is your opinion on the 42" treps? Do they perform like you hoped? (considering they aren't broke in yet)

Rig looks good!

Rockwells607 · Nov 28, 2017

They seem to be superior to my SX's at wheeling in the country's cement obstacles on Sunday and he is running 10psi . Seems at BK park the treps spun alittle more on the dirt obstacles but with one weekend of use and not being broke in I'd say it's hard to judge . They certainly arnt a bad tire !

Weight of this warthog?

Thanks for the response. I'm leaning towards the 42" treps, but I don't personally know anyone running them.

4475 full of fluids. 51%-49% weight balance. I'll have to try airing it out a little when I get used to it.

That sounds like my experience with treps. I think it is because they don't seem to clean themselves as quickly as the SX's IMHO

The pictures don't do the detailed work justice. The dash, tube work, roof panels, etc. There isn't a straight tube on it. Everything has at least a slight roll.

I know some people who act like that is the dumbest thing they have ever seen, actually it's not a couple people, it's more like a coast.

Yeah. You can wheel a box that works or you can wheel a piece of art that also works.

AllGoNoShow · Nov 29, 2017

That sucker is LOW. Nice work.

It's because of those front link mounts I'm sure....

Glad your in something nice your proud of man. Maybe we can get to do a little wheeling together soon.

You should Absolutely be proud. This rig just bumped Nate's rig out of my favorite Rockwell rig.
How these guys can layout these chassis is amazing.
