It's a 5-lug (or was). I didn't think they were going to show any pictures before the expo... :confused:

Currie 6-lug rear axle. I'm going to assume they will be using modified 6-lug spindles so the front will match the back. (Or maybe full custom spindles?)
Can't wait for the expo so I can check this thing out in person.

.....happysmileys got some competition :D
He he, thanks but I don't think can be considered competition with a fully established fab-company, I'm just building part time out of a glamorized 2 car garage, I sure don't have their resources or budget right now lol. Truck looks pretty sweet, think that single shock front ends might have a hard time keeping up with the rear though. Wonder how they will get the abs sensors to work on old 4wd spindles for production kits. I like how they just took off the middle section of the roof to make the cage build super easy. Why didn't I think of that lol.
I like my cowplow bumper for the cow stampedes that come through Santa Barbara constantly:doh:
