| Why the 8 lug bolt pattern?
Are those some sort of "custom" portal axles?

That's Drexx's rig. He lives in the Philippines, but his rig is here in California.
He replaced the factory axles for portal axles. Like the ones on the Unimog.

| Dude...it's easy enough to have one of those for yourself...
step 1: roll an 80 series at highway speed...
step 2: ship it to Ken Hanna and tell him to make yours look like that one.
easy 
It looks better now than in those pics.

| Doug,
You forgot steps 3 and 4.
Step 3: Trash it on the trial run.
Step 4: Send it back to Hanna

| I've got one question/suggestion. Why have zip ties to hold the soft brake lines on the front, instead of having a metal bracket to hold them? I couldn't find any pics, but you know the metal brackets in a "P" shape where the straight part has a hole in it for a screw, and the rounded part has a rubber grommet in it and you can secure your cable/wire/whatever with it so that it stays put. I would think with the zip ties and that brake line moving around, it's going to rub and get damaged eventually.
Awesome truck, though!

| A quote from his buildup page .. As you can see, this is a work in progress.  I have customized Humm9 portal axles (Ford 9-inchers and armored Humvee axle combo, custom axle housing 1/4" thick) with CTIS (central tyre inflation system), massive disc brakes for fr and rr, trying to fit in 2.5" dia Fox Racing coil-over-shocks (with 16" travel), 37" BFG Krawlers, custom internal rollcage, Safari snorkel, TRD supercharger for the 4.5L gas engine (1FZ-FE mated to stock 4-speed A343F auto tranny), HannaQuality sliders and bumpers, Warn 9.5 XP (front)and 9.5ti (rear) winches, and other secret bits and pieces.
