    Thought I'd give you guys an update. I finally got my truck back on four wheels today and to say I am proud is an understatement! After months of hard work my parter and I had to sit down and take in what we've created. I ended up with about 8 inches of lift. For a comparison a stock oil pain is 10 1/2 inches of clearance, the Rover has 18 3/4 inches of clearance. I still have to finish plumbing the brake lines, install the shocks which will have 14 inches of travel front and rear, and some other final details. It has come a long way in a couple weeks.

    Holy crap that thing is a monster!! I can't wait until I retire and get a grown up job!

    I actually have cladding pieces to cover that area. I just have to find them.

    Thought I would share a picture of my new front shocks. I sat them next to a stock VX for scale.

    Thought I'd take a quick moment and post a couple progress pictures. Lots of changes made to the truck since my last post. We are now running a full hydro steering setup. I plan on making my first race of the season on July 6th at Devil's Playground in Ashboro, NC. Last year DPG was VERY unkind to my truck. I finished the race but limped away after sustaining major damage to my body and frame. But here are the update photos.
