  • The rear bedcage-and-bumper combo is a joint effort by Dixon Bros. Racing and S.I. Motorsports. The main structure is by Dixon, and S. I. added custom touches in the form of the hitch receiver and the tire carrier.

High-speed dunes… A pair of Fox bypass shocks controls 16 inches of rear wheel travel. The rear bedcage-and-bumper combo is a joint effort by Dixon Bros. Racing and S.I. Motorsports. The main structure is by Dixon, and S. I. added custom touches in the form of the hitch receiver and the tire carrier. Rolling stock consists of KMC Enduro Beadlocks wrapped with BFGoodrich KM2 Mud-Terrain tires. This is a strong combination that affords traction over a variety of surfaces: perfect for a triple-duty truck. Fifteen-inch wheels clear the stock Ranger brakes and afford the tallest, most forgiving tire sidewall possible.
Custom security splines keep the spare in place until it’s needed. Did we mention attention to detail? Take a look at the custom S.I.-built battery tray and the equally-slick fuse box bracket. This stuff takes extra time during a build, but it makes the resulting truck infinitely more reliable as well as easier to work on. The stock rearend was ditched for a custom Currie 9-inch stuffed with 4.88 gears and a spool for trouble-free (albeit not that pavement friendly) traction. The skid plate is another meticulous S.I. Motorsports creation. Extra tire clearance was built into the front end by cutting and patching the air conditioning case as well as the air filter housing. The execution is so clean it looks factory. No floating floor jack handles on this truck! Custom brackets keep things secure and easily accessible when needed. The interior is mostly stock, but a custom center console houses a Lowrance GPS unit that’s easy to read and reach from either seat. High-speed dunes…
…and creepy-crawly four-lo 4x4 trails are all in a day’s drive for Team Banana. This truck looks perfect from any angle.
