OK, part way done on the Deli/boat. Now we just have to figure out some kind of anti-gravity vehicular inversion gyroscopic rotation device and the world will be ours!!!!!

Thanks, it's actually my girlfriend's. I don't know why but that is somehow cooler than it being mine. She even wanted me to beef it up with big tires, shocks, lights etc....

I got mine from the UK site: http://www.click2add.co.uk/index.html?t ... pt_49.html and click on handbooks (I got both the user's guide and the russek manual)

That looks like it's quite a feat to get on the roof?

What size tires are you running, they really toughen up the look of that truck!

It was a 2 man job and just barely fit my bars. It's not my boat though, we have a canoe to go on top which is much easier to handle.

The tires are 31/10.50/15 on old Toyota truck rims. I personally feel that should be the stock size anyway, it steers better, rides better, looks better. The only drawback is being wider they do tend to track in ruts more. Par for the course, I have 33's on my Tacoma and it's the same.

As much as I like Neikts idea see if this one is of any help. It's basically a pulley system running to the front then back again.
