Take the limiting straps off swap out the airbags for some coilovers and it'll flex! Other farmers have asked where we came up with the build design from... answer: 4x4 magazines Haven't had it on the water but I'm sure it will float.
We had the engine built by a shop back east. The parts on that I can think of right off are: Edelrbrock 750cfm, performer intake, roush 200 heads, 4x4 extreme cam, forged pistons, accel distributor. I think the bottom end was still standard issue type parts.

that's crazy Grass. I guess having a mud type tire on that rig would defeat the "soft footprint" necessity right? It would just rut up everything I guess.

I'm not joking when I say this. We were thinking about running dual 49" Irocks on all 4 corners! Thoughts of going that way were lighter weight (66x44 w/wheel weigh 700+lbs each) and they might have given us almost the same foot print when aired way down. Just weren't sure enough how much foot print we would get with the Irocks to try it.
