Saweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!
Can someone in CO sneak over to christo's and take some pictures or at least go over and pretend like you are buying 39 inch krawlers and would like to see them in person? O yeah and do not forget to report back.
I believe the meanest geenest hundy of all time is about to hit the streets!
Thanks,

I won't be here this weekend for delivery Christo. I'll be leading runs in Sedona. When is it coming to me?
You did complete the 8" lift and 37's?

I think you should paint it all green. The bumpers, sliders, trim, everything. I'd love to see the monochromatic look on this 100. That would be sweet!
I'd ask what something like this build would cost, but if I need to ask, I'm sure I can't afford it.

I guess we are just lucky here we can buy em, and dont have to build em with a solid axle
Now, lets see some nice glass fenders on that thing to "beef" it up visually.
P.S, it has to be photogenic, so a bright color, maybe yellow

Looking good Christo! Did that 100 get rolled or in an accident? Both front fenders and the DS door are trashed. Also, what steering box is that attached to the drag link? C'mon, give us more!

Yes, but with what motor :( I think this is easier that a 2UZFE swap into an 80

It might stay green for now. Cost and time is not on our side for a full paintjob.

It wasn't rolled, but it was in a minor fender bender with a tree and a ditch.  Trashed the front IFS parts, so it made sense to cut it all off.

80 Series box and we also replaced the power steering pump with a high capacity PSC pump. Planning to do hydro assist on it later. Uses our new hi-steer arms and put the drag link and tie rod in front of the axle.

Man it is killing me that I won't be at CM this year to see this in person. I can't wait to see more pics; keep up the good work!
