**Fullsize Pre-runner pics**

One day I will be loaded and have tons of time and energy to spend building a fullsize prerunner...one day
 
On a tangent, and not claiming to know enough about the racing class. I had the occasion to run some "improved" dirt road in Joshua Tree Nat'l park last Spring. Mild whoopdee do's, fine dust over small washboard. I experimented with both 2WD and 4WDHi, running as fast as 70mph. Of course, with 2WD, the front understeers. With 4WDHi, my 2007 K2500HD just plain pulled through the curves, otherwise I would not have run that fast. Having that said, I wouldn't want to run at those speeds without 4WDHi, just like the race trucks do. Where's the benefit of running 2WD super flexies?
P.S. Running down the road fast like that, was a blast. Similar to running speed boat.:D

a REAL full size prerunner

Here is a FULL SIZE prerunner! A suburban built using a 73 chassis. It has a TH400, NVG241 transfer case, 8.1 liter Vortec (only 420hp), 20 in front and 36 in rear travel. All sorts of other do dads to make your mouth water.

That thing still around?

I remember when 4-Wheel & Off-Road built that thing...and then it just fell off the face of the...magazine.
 
the reason that thing hasnt been seen since is it didnt work worth a dam. read on race dez a few years ago that they had serious handling issues with it that couldnt be fixed.
 
Figures. Over the past ten years I've noticed that only that project and the race '04 F150 have completely disappeared.
 
yea after i get my cage in and actually hit whoops at over 50mph ill see if i wanna end up building a 2wd center mount a arm monster blazer or not.. kinda hard to decide.. go anywhere and hit whoops and jumps decent or be able to hit whoops faster and smoother and do the olds double.. hmmm .. really wouldnt mind stripping down the blazer and center mount triple bypasses and coilovers on every corner :confused:
 
wow pete, thats quite the collection, i too have alot of those, some i dont though, could ya post em in a bigger size?
