I would like to see some pics of the exo on the black toy. I believe this is Chris's (Red hair and tatoo's) truck. I am planning an exo and would like to see the front fenders.

What size tube and what wall thickness is it?
Thanks
Ben

That is John Robertson's Pickup. The cage is made from 1.50 OD .120 Wall DOM tubing. I'll take a few photos of the cage for you and post them up next time John brings the truck in to the shop.

That cage is ever changing. I just cut out some more of it and added some things this weekeng. As soon as I get it how I want it I change my mind. Its the most relaxing hobby I have ever had. I can work on the truck ever night for hours and not be tired. Chris is welcome to take all the photos of it that you will need to get ideas. The cage works really well, I test it on a weekly basis

Each time I drive it I pretend it's for the last time. Thats makes it more exciting. The falling over all the time is just a bonus.

I really dig this truck. I've got an 80 longbed that I go back and forth on how insane i want to build it. From what Iv'e seen John's truck is one capable rig.

I've got a couple of questions about how it's set up:
Wheelbase,
tire size,
lift size,
gears,
dual cases?
injection or propane?

and anything else that wud help me a guy like me get started in the right direction.

I want a streetable rig thats also a monster on the trails.....thanks for any info.
