Thanks for the comments guys. Xmod noob, I remember seeing that F-150 M/T on Scale4x4, and it's incredible. Just that I wouldn't build one for my own, I'm not a fan of M/T. The purpose of this build is to make it better than the Hilux that I've build.

Update: Now the rear end have 4 links suspension set up. Trimmed up the engine bay and installed the servo, still need to mount the upper links on the front axle.

Sorry about your dad's LC. The two colors I have in mind so far are white or silver. Would most likely go with the white.

Thanks man, I'm planning on getting some new shoes for it by xmas, a set of Irok Super Swampers and some smaller rims.

Update: Got the Hi-Lift jack painted, and added rear mud flaps. (Still need to make the front pairs.)

Yup, its The Stig, or The Stig's putty cousin. :lol:

Lol! Cause that's The Stig's putty cousin.

Update: Picked up some jerry cans. Gotta need that extra gas, cause you don't want to run out of gas in the middle of the arctic. :lol:

Update: Got the jerry can holder mounted to the frame. Using the stock LMC body mounts to mount the jerry can holder, so it's removable. The clips that hold it in place also can be use as tow hooks.

Update: Received the Atomic BB2 in the mail today. Only installed it to make sure it works, haven't got a chance to really test it out yet, but I'm already loving this motor. It gave the truck a little more wheel speed.
http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/k...r/PC060927.jpg

The shaft is a little longer compare to the stock motor, so I had to drill a hole on the gear cover to clear the shaft.
