Addicted Offroad's project "Mini-Me"

[AddictedOffroad]

Finally was able to get this thing out to wheel it. Spent a week in Moab. Ran Hells Revenge, Green Day, Blackout, and Lockjaw out in BFE. Then did some scenic stuff with the family. Hardly any pics. Took a couple dings to the body, but nothing too bad. Rig works well.

Oh, its got a 3rd row seat in it now too.

Glad you didn't wheel anything extreme (I kid), very nice ride

Might as well use it for what it was intended for. :fro:

Got to watch this truck in action a little bit at BFE - Scotty was climbing ledges as high as the truck is tall. It's a good build.

It was good meeting you out there!

Mini-me grew up this week. I literally haven't taken squat for pics during the actual build process. We've all seen SAS procedure pics, so I won't bore you with those.

FWIW, its running TG 3" rear springs and TG 3" front springs with the 3rd leaf removed. I've never liked how tall the TG 3" front springs are. This puts it level with the rear. I figure its going to settle a couple inches more anyway. I also need to add the winch, a custom set of sliders, and the rear bumper/tire carrier. When its all said and done it should be a low rider.

I pretty much built it in the evenings at the shop after normal work was done. I started wednesday night and finished it with Hunter today and showed him how to completely assemble the front axle.

So far, its now got the 5.29s F&R, Yukon Grizzly in the rear, and Yukon Spartan up front. Dirty 30s, cromoly hub gears, etc.

The duals and 4.7s will be installed sometime in the next couple weeks. Then, we'll start working on a cage, sliders, and the tire carrier.

Here are the after pics.

How much did it cost you to have it painted and the graphics added?

Thank you!
