Anyone recognize which brand aftermarket bumper this Av is sporting?
 
The above attachment.

It appears to be right up on the tree on the driver's front tire... The tree looks like plenty of people brush it though, so they're probably just spotting.
 
WOW! ! ! ! that is nice :eek: :eek:
 
The bumper is a Trail Ready Roadarmor (not Road Armor - different company) bumper. Excellent wokmanship. Their number is 425 353 6776. Ask for Larry.
 
Sweet truck........................Check out the bow tie.....hehehe advertising........
 
That looks like a front solid axle conversion... serious bucks if it is.

Your monitor must be a whole lot better than this 18" Viewsonic flatscreen that I'm using. I can see a splash of red on the bow tie, but can't make out what it is.

Is that Avalanche in trouble? Judging from the way the guys around it look and the position it is in I wonder?

Nice truck!!

I agree ... vey nice AV.

As far as the looks of the others? I, too, beleive they are just spotting. There is porbalby an obsticle that the rear tire on the drivers side that needs to be negotiated. Maybe popping up a ledge or over a log?

Great catch. ?I missed that the first time. ?It definately looks like a solid front axle from this shot. ?This is no ordinary modded AV. ?

I zoomed in on the bowtie and couldn't get much of a clear view as to what it is or says... anyone got a clue on this?

The AV has a Dana 60 front axle from DynaTrac and a 14-bolt SF rear. It was built by Poison Spyder Customs of Denver.
 
:eek: :eek: OMG that is one sweet looking AV.

The question is is it geared for just off-roading or could you use it around town too??

 
Well, I'm not impressed with the silver over the red paint. Looks like porcupine quills to me. With all of the mod money obviously put into the truck, you'd think they could have done something better than what my kids could have done in the driveway!
 
Mark, one of these days we'll have to meet up and wander on over to Poison Spyder Customs. ?They are off of Titan and Santa Fe (south of C470). ? Let me know when works for you. ? :)

I need to correct a statement, Poison Spyder Customs did the tubework and some other mods. ?DynaTrac built the axles. ?I don't remember who did the SFA conversion (it will come to me).

flynhigh, I belive the axles are 4.88:1 (but may have been changed to 5.13:1). ?The trucks are drivable, but not to the level of luxury that we expect!
 
Just about the time I think I got the Bombolla Avalanche again... You gotta show me that photo. :rolleyes: I'd still go up aganst him if I could.
