Bolt holding the pressure from both of those! Looks like someone forgot the grade 8 bolts. Kinda crappy design on that bottom mount.

Typical Show truck. Effectively useless. Built light and barely highway worthy let alone anything else. Also why if your looking most of the show trucks don't have working 4X4 systems Drive angles are to harsh. Cool to see someone actually wreck one in such A weak fashion though.

Must be nice to have money like that. But even as a "show truck" that's still a little ridiculous. Just my opinion

Yeah no wonder it broke, one bolt and a puney bracket to hold a truck of that size, you think they would have been smart enough to have the bracket encase the eyes's of the shocks so it could do that, thats what you get when a pencil pusher designs a truck on a computer and not enough testing prior to spending 300K to build a trailer queen!!!

That's just plain ol' bad engineering. That's a really simple design problem that somebody dropped the ball on. Too bad, had that truck been fully functional it would've been a pretty cool build.

does that truck look a little lopsided after the jump, or is it just me?
