2007 Sema Auto Show Off Road Parts - Nuts & Bolts

Tuff Tundra
Tundras are hot, and the team over at Tuff Country created its own functional Tundra that sported its new 6-inch lift. It also had a custom lightbar, Light Force lights, 35-inch Toyo Open Country M/Ts, and KMC wheels.

For Those About To Chrome (we salute you)
This JK is the polar opposite of dechromed and camo'd. But hey, some folks like this sort of thing. This Jeep was a joint effort between the folks at RealWheels and Life Fitness. It features products from Superlift, Gibson, StreetGlow, Airaid, ITW, Bushwacker, and Mickey Thompson.

Almost A Buggy
Another JK that turned heads was this buggy-like machine at Warrior Products. In addition to a mindboggling array of Warrior bolt-on products, it had a 4-inch Tuff Country suspension, Xenon Flat Panel fender flares, MileMarker SI9500 winch, gobs of PIAA lights, and Pro Comp Xterrain M/T tires on Pro Comp wheels.

Jumpin' JK
Over at the Bilstein booth, crowds gathered to see this '07 Rubicon Express Jeep Wrangler. This JeepSpeed 3 race car is truly incredible. Some of its features include a Rubicon Express custom- fabricated chassis, heavily-modified Dan Fodge 6.1L Hemi engine, Art Carr 727 transmission, Currie 9-inch axles, Rubicon Express racing suspension, Bilstein Black Hawk bypass shocks, and 17- inch Walker Evans bead-lock wheels.

Rad Cruiser
Over at Toyota was this cool trail-ready Off Road Evolution-built '08 Land Cruiser. See that Hannibal Safari Equipment roof rack? It has a tent and awning built into it. The front and rear bumpers are by TJM and Off Road Evolution. The front bumper holds a Warn 9.5ti winch, and the rear bumper holds a spare Toyo Open Country M/T tire on its built-in tire carrier. ORE also made the rocksliders and the snorkel.

Stunning Super Duty
This incredible Power Stroke-powered Ford resided at the Mickey Thompson/Dick Cepek booth. It's called Project Crusher, and in addition to its dazzling paint, it featured an array of Banks engine mods, a Fabtech 10-inch lift with Dirt Logic 4.0 coilovers up front, and 38.5 Dick Cepek Crusher radials on Dick Cepek DC-1 black wheels. Inside, it sported a Sony Xplod audio system and RoadWire custom leather seats.

Attention On The Flight Deck
Nitto positioned its heavily modified '08 Toyota Tundra CrewMax in such a way that it looked as if it was flying. Naturally we wondered if it really could fly, so shortly after the show we took this machine out to the desert and put it through the paces. Look for a full feature on this truck in next month's issue of Four Wheeler. So did it fly? Hint: We have liftoff!

Tall Silverado
John Llado has been building big SEMA trucks like, forever. This year, his palette was a new Silverado with the Duramax diesel. Nine inches of Fabtech suspension, 36-inch Mickey Thompson tires, an N-fab bumper, Motive gears, an Auburn limited-slip, and Banks accessories are some of its mods.

Over at the Ford exhibit, the guys from MTV's Pimp My Ride were signing autographs. No Xzibit at the exhibit,though.

Everyone was ignoring this Aussie guy like the plague as he played his didgeridoo. Not us. We stopped to take photos. When we did, he unexpectedly jumped up and struck this pose. It scared us more than the H2 SUT on 30s.

Mad Mike from MTV's Pimp My Ride followed Holman and Brubaker around for an entire afternoon until they agreed to have their picture taken with him. OK, maybe not.
