In regards to the tow vehicle thread, just thought I would share a couple cool truck sites that I have run across lately. www.appwheels.com (http://www.appwheels.com) (Cyclone, these 19.5" dually wheels would look absolutely sick on that body dropped dually of yours) www.sportruck.com (http://www.sportruck.com) (kick-ass SEMA 2001 coverage). http://free.***boat.net/ubb/smile.gif

Hey Bense, where you been? In to that new house yet? I hope you installed a cieling/rafter mounted engine hoist in the garage, so I can pull my motor at your pad! J/K! Yes I have seen Cyclone's dually in the mags. The zebra print inside is a little much for me, but it takes some big cajones to body drop that old school dually. I've always loved that body style (owned a suburban) but they haven't been too popular with the sport truck crowd untill recently. Love the fact that it is different, and body dropped!

Yeah I am in the house and thats why you have not seen me much. I never really come on here anymore. Hopefully soon I can drop by more often. I do have a picker and my motor is out on the stand in the garage as we speak. That would be fat though to rig that up. Maybe that will be my next project.

Hey Bense! Hows the new place. I heard mikey moved in with ya. I still have the '69 Chevy. I built a tube chassis for it and its currently laying rocker on 22's all the way around. The 502 should be back in it and I'll have it out at the lauglin run. I'm re gel coating my boat in a week. I found a really cool guy that used to work at eliminator and does it out of his house. Whats up with you?

Ohh, I get it now, Cyclone is Mike F from Mini Truckin' right? Yes I have seen the Tacoma, how did that turbo work? I thought Cyclone was the dude from Utah that built it. Just figured out that Mike is the new owner.

ya that's me. I traded the tacoma for the dually. The turbo worked great! Ended up making like 280hp at the flywheel by the time it was sold.

280 hp! Those 2.4's run pretty good stock. I bet that must of been one heckuva sleeper (minus the wild paint). Spank any 5.0's? Those were always my favorite victims. http://free.***boat.net/ubb/biggrin.gif

While we are on the subject, does anyone know of a good selection of SUV 18"-20" rims on line for my Durango? I checked out the tire rack, and I checked out Concept Neeper and saw nothing that really floated my boat.

Froggy, here are a few. www.billetwheel.com (http://www.billetwheel.com) www.introwheels.com/trkn (http://www.introwheels.com/trkn) www.billetspecialties.com (http://www.billetspecialties.com) Cylone could probably suggest a few more. I like Budnik's as well, except I've had a few bad experiences with them.

Colorado Custom makes some bitchen wheels. Customer service leaves a little bit to be desired! They have a web site also, but not sure what it is. Could probably find it using a search engine!

1quickjet. The tacoma was a terror after the turbo was all dialed-in. I regularly blew the doors off of mustangs. It was also fun to burn imports as well. In the end, it was too nice to drive every day and I needed a tow truck.
