Nope. But then again, I know how to weld.

Its good for everything. Everything from Open High Speed Desert, to Black Diamond trails and everything inbetween. I have done it all with mine.

Probably the most publicised of them all is Sean's from ORR. There is a continuing build of it in Four Wheeler Magazine and on FourWheeler.com

He has had is truck from Glamis, to Pismo, to the open desert of Barstow and even the famous trails of Moab Utah.. and everywhere inbetween.

Over a year ago, but with the DBR front end.

This is that trail.

Between Sean and I, I think we have proved that the Dixon kit is a great all around offroad machine.

Oh and xp1ik99, feel free to post what ever photos you have of Seans rig.
