Yeah, it's not too shabby ... still too light in the @rse end, but simply massive amount of flex front and rear - add to that the front autolocker (and Benny's reasonably fearless attitude and lack of concern at damage) and you'd struggle to find something it doesn't go through ... that said, having seen both in the flesh, the pigtrol (dhuck's truck) has the edge still (sorry Benny!!! lmao) ...

has wieght in the rear end to stop a bit of hopping( dhucks rig that is)

oh ok I get what you mean now. ....
as for the weight in the rear, or lack of however you see it.. was due to the absolutly rooted shocks I had which cost me $15 bucks for all 4. I have brand new shock which were tested at scienic rim and it does drive alot better.

As for the ute v pigtrol its only a locker, reduction gears and a tonne of weight ahead of me. come next tuesday it will only be a locker and a tonne of weight. and maybe we will go for a wheel SOON going on PROPER tracks NUDGE NUDGE WINK WINK dhuck !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol seeing as we didnt wheel togther at lcmp or scienic and it was sloppy as sh!t at the last glasshouse

weight all over it mate - ex comp truck and has full interior roll cage, as well as triple tube rear bar work, scrub bars and a big mumma bullbar ... probably close on 300-400 kgs of additional steel on that bad boy ... doesn't help at the fuel bowser though ...

on the very first outing I went on with the forum I announced I was coming and dhuck replied
"good I need someone to push me" so I am that someone!!!!! I then challenged him to a dual after the day out.
all this was so I could go wheeling with a competition winning rig so I can rate the progress of my own
