And that isn't

Arrrgh - cut down hard tops are right up there with soft tops cut into utes in my book.

The green one is indeed super cool.... but I too am unsure about the spurious winching. Maybe if it is a "god winch" it's faster than driving?

Steve.

maybe its broken

winch challenge truck

maybe doesnt know how to spell i like the exo on the first one and the cargo barrier slash thief deterrer

That red thing is definitely in the birdcage category.

These kind of exo's just loose capability. They are bulky, so you end up with the physical volume of, say, a GQ.

Here in vic I would get sick of getting hung up on the bars in front of the doors.

Edited with correct picture....

THIS is how to run an exo on a sierra. This is dead space otherwise that can be tied right through into the sliders, which can sit in under the sill once the sill is cut away.

This gives all the support of a proper internal cage but the windscreen/cab protection of an exo, and actually increases clearance rather than loosing it.

Grimbo's came up well. The front hoop is actually the rear most hoop from a LWB sierra with 65mm taken out of the width. In the case of Grimbo's, it was bolted to the cowl rather than through to the floor.

Ugly Zooks are the best.
I like ugliness

The Team ProRv guys in Malaysia do some awesome Zooks - they used to frequent JimnyWorld.com a lot...

...seems their website has gone now

I really like the green one. I especially like how they have trimmed the panel under the headlights and neatly capped it

i love the way they do their zooks over there.. well most of em..
ill hunt around and find some pics..

i would say looking at the pic his rear diff is stuck or the whole lhs of the zook is stuck..

if not it might be a winch stage?

or he is recovering another vehicle?

Thats what it looks like to me.

Well spotted Guy,

All the spectators are looking to where the winch is connected rather than at the car- seems like a plausible explanation.

There's no way that car is stuck - the rear pumpkin is off the ground and the articulation is not enough to imply that a wheel is trapped in a hole.

The only recovery possbility is that it's broken.
