well mines no winner compared to these beasties but ill throw it up

95 fonefiddy 4x4, 300 I6, M5OD 4" lift, 75 D44 SAS with 78 D44 outters, custom interior, somewhat custom paint haha, blue LED dash light cluster

it waiting on 35x13.50 ground hawgs that are supposed to be in soon, its currently awaiting inspection hense the tooks on the off road lights







this truck is a huge WIP...so on the list..

-custom bumpers front and rear and headache rack/bed rails built by me
-ZF 5speed swap
-mild 300 build (probably wont stay mild once i tear into it )
-id like to get a 9" out back if i can find out what to do about the VSS
-i want either a gear drive and/or twin stick t-case still undecided here
-finish fixing the rust
-and maybe level out the front about and inch
-dual battery setup with a bigger alternator
-fuel pump kill switch
-sliding rear window

this truck has been built completely by me, everything from start to finish (with the exception of the drag link and trac bar machining) and i intend to keep it that way...this truck has taught me more in the last 6 months than i have learned in school over the last 12 years...and i plan on driving this thing to my grad LOL

not much but i built it and i am proud of it, after all, how many 16 year old kids can say they have done that kind of work...well i shouldnt ask that on here there are probably many of them LOL

I thought there was like a 35" tire requirement. Read the first post. This isn't just anything, this is the extreme trucks. Your truck doesn't even have cupholders.

Hey thanks man, means alot coming from people with nice stuff. It's always nice to hear other then some drunk redneck thinking it's just another tall truck. I'm hoping soon I'll get to REALLY flex it and see what she's got. Found an old bumper lift jack that should be able to lift one of my tires up higher then the old deere.

Thanks again. It's easy for some people to cut a big check, or swipe their fancy visa, but the details is what really get you noticed. Funny story I took this thing to a show as a PROJECT and got more attention then alot of other rigs that had more spent on just the suspension then I have into everything. Oh well, shows ya what some elbow grease and detirmination can do.

ha ha, the first step is going to get it moving under it's own power again. I'm tired of dragging it around with the tractor. After that we'll THINK about the paint n body work

Oh and actually the ONLY thing I haven't touched is the engine... still stock there FOR NOW! It will someday shred it's tired small block for a fire breathing MAF roller 460! for now it has a 35 horse john deere moving her around

Hence the crop dusting, lack of articulation, and bogger welds on my roll cage

Baddest TTB truck on here?
1984 F150, 300 big six, NP435, NP208
6" susp, 3" body
Welded 8.8 (It refuses to break!!!)
Stock D44 TTB (Warn locking hubs)
44" Gumbo Monster Mudders on 15x12 wagons






No need to poke fun, I've heard all the remarks. Only I know what this truck has been through and the abuse the drivetrain can take! My opinion on the matter.. Why fix what isn't broken?
