I have been trying to find the words to say what I think about it with out upsetting the owner but I can't. To me, it looks like shit.

Don't think you'd offend the owner - judging by the panel beating methods employed and that abomination of a bull bar he clearly doesn't give a f#$%. :p

32" rubber and still only EJ22 powered... I know my car feels gutless just going from 185/70/14 to 215/65/16.

what a beast, yes it is rough but its a offroader and the yanks are crazy,
interesting read how it is setup, buy the looks it has a rear diff in the front and a transfer case to make it 4x4, and get the low gearing, then has a welded rear diff thats why it keeps breaking rear sharfts!!!

Still looks like a clumsy lump though... Why make it if its un-reliable?

Is the rubber on the wrong way? I thought the (white )writing was only on the outside, not inside...
