The guy did some neat home fab.
He made the front and rear bumers, cage, sliders and all.
35 inch 4wd tractor wheels and tires.

Tires look like axle breakers and the cage weighs more than the jeep. Hes gonna have to spend alot more money if he wants it to hold up to the extra weight and traction, not to mention the rotational mass of those tires. What do you guess the tires and wheels weigh?

I like the tires. The exo looks like it may cause the Ryan effect. Looks like a bird hunting buggy throw a school bus seat up top and go shoot some quail

 {toast} The guy was just crakin jokes about doing that very thing.

 I told him I wanted to flip it over in the parking lot to see if the exo would hold up.  :hlp

Super top heavy.  Add some outriggers and it'll be fine!

Well, I don't like exos to begin with since they typically stick out from the body a bit. That thing sticks like a foot!
