Life changes are requiring that it’s time to sell my rock crawler. Purchased it back 2014 from Matt Perritte and have copied the build stats from what had been done up to the time of purchase. Since then, with the help of Gordon Bailie we have changed to a 4-link in the rear, lengthen the wheelbase, Atlas transfer case, built 4-speed automatic new fuel cell and detroit locker in the rear. We had a lot of fun with the truck but things have changed and time to let someone use the truck for what is designed for. NOT SURE HOW TO ADD PHOTOS..
