The bumpers look like Rockstar Fab units. The rack doesn't though his racks were the cats ass

Came across this pic today but cant ID the roof rack. Anyone know?
http://grabawrench.com/wp-content/up...covery-SE7.jpg I realize I am reviving a thread from 2 years ago but I ran across this pic on Google today and recognized the truck! This one was apparently built by Sparks Motors AKA Discovery Channel's "Diesel Brothers" and has a 300 TDI Conversion http://i66.tinypic.com/e8wflw.jpg I had to dig back into his Instagram to find this pic but I have seen other photos of the truck in the past, someone should track it down and buy it.. |
I guess they did a terrible job at it, too. Overland Rehab: Expedition Portal?s 300TDI Disco II | Expedition Portal

I tried googling the truck but couldn't find anything linking it to the "Diesel Brothers" - I'd guess they want to keep it that way... |
Definitely home-built. The 45deg angle cuts for the step in the rack give it away. Also note the sliders and bumpers that are made from the same round tubing.
Overall, it seems like the truck was built for show more than function. |
Eh, I'm not sure it's that terrible. The weight of the roof rack seems like a big mistake, but I wouldn't be too bothered about the use of bedliner and other minor quibbles about the bumper. It's an off-road vehicle. It's not clear what specifically is wrong with the engine.

The 300 TDi is a pretty old oiler by todays reckoning. |

They at least could have put a decent engine in, like a TD5. The installation they have done with the 300 TDi looks a real 'pigs ear' jobby :laugh:
