TruckHacks - Monster Truckin'
Monster Truckin' in the High Desert
Had to knock off work early to make up for some overtime I worked earlier in the week, so what better time to go do some wheeling. As I came up over a ridge I found this burned out husk and decided to see what the awesome stock articulation would get me. Plus, I'd never tried to run over another vehicle before. <grin>
I want to go back in the near future with a trusty spotter so I can really montser truck it by driving over it from one end to the other.

Nice Trucks,
I just swapped out a 5.9 diesel into my 05 powerwagon and added twin turbos, big intercooler and a lot of engine work. Truck is 90% done, jsut waiting on DT Pro Fab to make the rear long arm suspension for me and i will finish with air bags the whole way around the truck. Invested well over 30K to convert to diesel but the truck will very powerfull and weigh in at over 11,000lbs. Have 16.5 winch in front and the 12,000 in the rear. Should see it in Diesel Power magazine when its done.
Take care
