Glamisdude's Desert Camping Truck, Round 2

[glamisdude72000]

As most of you know this is the sequel build of my truck as my last was totaled in a rear end collision(Glamisdude72000's Build Thread). So far this truck has been a substantial upgrade to the last one, having gained half the amount of miles, 2 model years newer, and 4x4 with a locker. This is the story of its progress, enjoy

[LEIGHTO#L80]

Shame about your old rig being un repairable. New trucks nice.

Thanks everyone. The truck is starting to move forward tonight it gets the rear suspension done. So OME Dakar hd leaf's and bilstien 5125's. And I did test the 4x4 on my way back. Locked 4 low is absolutely rediculous.... just point it where you want to go and it just goes... lol
