Well said! I would rather have an OUO 16" lift... I think it looks great and I have always wanted a big lifted dodge. But also, I think the carli 3" with fiberglass fenders looks awesome! Both kits are great IMO.

Dont know the exact number but it will be more and more as time goes on. Maybe one of the guys on here that knows more about the stock full class will answer on the exact number currently in use.

SCORE didnt allow the use of turbo diesels until the 2008 season. They changed the rules and now Class 8, Stock Full and TT can run turbo diesels.

KORE has a pretty sick Dakar race truck thats running a 5.9l with NV4500. KORE's Dakar Race Truck

To bad parts arent welded on,especially for a "Offroad only vehicle". Another nice thing would have been some upper caster adjustments on those arms

k i wouldnt wheel it, however, i cant bag the arms. the upper caster is controlled via the longer arm, then lower adjustments are made. its actually kinda nice to have because when you run the geometry this way, the caster cant ever come loose or get knocked out due to a big bump or landing. we run the inverted style of this design for that reason on my design, although i do weld to the frame....

theres the difference between a fourlink and y link! benefits to both. downside to the y link is that you gotta yank a bolt to adjust one arm, upside is that the thing can never loosen itself, and because the short arm hangs off the long arm, if one arm fails for some reason, the others keep it stationary due to triangulation whereas a fourlink will move aside and lay down. still, i build both, and dear jesus four link feels safer! whereas the y link flexes like a sonofa.....
