The latest evolution of the Rappy.
This started out as a simple relocation of the spare tires further back for better weight distribution.... lol The Work is being done at Miller Offroad Design in Willis TX.
The suspension is staying the same since the Rogue Racing stage 4 with the sprung under cantilever rear is capable of sustaining an insane amount of abuse at speeds. All the forward facing lights are being replaced for Baja Design setups in their Racer Edition series. Icon Radio installed (interior mod), long way to go on getting this ready for TRR but progress is being made!

Looks good, Joe!

If you want to add a 60" roof mount... let me know, I have some brackets on the shelf.

Thanks Jimbo, i went with the 50 because i am assuming the 60 will stick out on the sides, i want clean and flowing lines. I may be wrong but since i haven't seen a 60 mounted in the rear yet?

Interior cage too?

No interior cage yet, this is still my daily driver and i worry about the kids being seriously hurt if there were to be an accident. It is being setup so that in the near future the interior cage can be tied into the rear cage.

Man I love your truck! What wheels are those btw?

Those are Fuel Formula wheels in a 17" on 37" Cooper St Max tires. This tire wheel combo weighs pretty close to what a stock wheel and tire setup weighs. They look great, and are strong enough to handle what gets dished out. The less weight you add when going to 37's the less power loss you notice.
