Check out this kids truck in my class

He talks **** everyday about not me, but my truck.

"It's a preppy truck, he never takes it off road, it's such a pavement pounder"

Yet look at the work he does.

First thing Trent noticed other than it being 2wd with hack *** headache rack, half *** CB antenna mount, half *** front bumper with winch plate, half *** sliders he welded with E6010 while on the truck (look more like industrial curb feelers), and his now half *** hack bed bob job...

Please feel free to go to town on this kid, he's a royal douche.

those sliders hang like 6" away from the body lol. what is he planning with that bed? doesnt he know his rear spring hanger goes back farther than that cut and you kind of need to keep that part unless going to coils or moving the springs way forward. looks like **** to me.

just challenge him to a wheel off lol. just say "go wherever you want off road and i will follow and take harder lines". see what he says.

He is planning on bobbing the bed on his 2wd truck that has a winch on the front.

He plans on using an unmarried toyota case on his 2.3 5spd and using a toyota front SFA.... I'm going to laugh when this thread just delivers 10 pages lol

He calls those "sliders" btw lol

Oh and here's his awesome front winch bumper... Yes it's pad locked to the bumper and held on by 4 -3/8in bolts... Wonder what's gonna break first..

Oh and he made it so it stick outside the fender to protect the fender.... Then he goes and hacks up the bed... Same with his sliders, made them so far out so they protect not just the rocker panels, but the whole cab...

He's bright isn't he? I only say this for the constant attacking I get from him about my truck.

Some of you might recognize him... Apparently he's a member of TRS... Anyone know what he goes by?
