it has potential. Trying to pass it off as a regular hummer is dumb. Pull the doors off and put some Long travel suspension parts on and some bigger tires and paint it Desert Camo and I would rock it.

Someone said this before. If I were to wreck my the cab of my Ranger then I would buy the kit. But I would also do a SAS.

exactly what i was thinking.

in my opinion... it would be 100 times better if they went ahead and designed an original body that looked cool, rather than trying to pass it off as a smaller sized H1. if it were it's own unique body, and they didn't copy anyone's look, i think it would be a great kit project

I think having a mini H1 is stupid.

Arent boxes on pickups detatched with a gap for a reason? Doesnt the frame twist when hauling/offroading, and that allows it to bend without damage? Wont a full body directly on the frame of a ranger crimp the body panels when offroading?

they made many unibody trucks back in the day


if its all one piece, it will strengthen the frame as well
