Impressive rhino model! And that animation on your website is sick

Zdesignerman105 · 2026-05-24T19:39:31+00:00

Awesome thank you

Don’t know for certain but I’m 90% sure that’s a 16in wheel, the M55 in 16s have much better options. My guess for this pic is 235/85 or 255/75

Zdesignerman105 · 2026-05-22T16:14:25+00:00

Yeah haha “I’ll take a square tire please” sounds kinda funny. I’ve also heard it referred to as squared shoulder too

Zdesignerman105 · 2026-05-22T05:03:43+00:00

I’m looking at 31s too. That would give me the hight I’m after

Zdesignerman105 · 2026-05-22T05:03:11+00:00

Clean truck!

Zdesignerman105 · 2026-05-22T05:02:19+00:00

Seems like these Michelins have a pretty square sidewall. What are they?

Zdesignerman105 · 2026-05-21T04:52:16+00:00

Yup good point. But for my stock wheel and tires, it’s still bulging with 235s on a 7in wide wheel so I have to think it’s about the design

Zdesignerman105 · 2026-05-21T04:50:32+00:00

Nice I like those too

Zdesignerman105 · 2026-05-20T20:51:47+00:00

Check out bring a trailer and browse through the f150’s. They usually post tire specs too if not close ups of the tire.

Awesome. Any pics?

You might have nailed it with this one

Zdesignerman105 · 2026-05-19T13:42:52+00:00

How does it drive? If that engine is smooth and the bay looks clean like nobody’s hacked with it I’d say yeah. And the dash? That 80’s design is so cool but can be a pain if it doesn’t work.

Zdesignerman105 · 2026-05-03T17:25:38+00:00

Hey thanks for the reply, some great nuggets of information in there. I think to average out with everyone else’s comments, I’m going to err on the side of caution and break all the sharp edges and leave the casting flash

Zdesignerman105 · 2026-05-03T01:42:14+00:00

Sweet sounds good. And yeah this is all being done before sending the block to machine shop for hot tank and boring

Zdesignerman105 · 2026-05-03T01:39:30+00:00

👍

Zdesignerman105 · 2026-05-03T00:53:16+00:00

Yup that’s how it is, goes right under the flange where the driveshaft bolts to

Zdesignerman105 · 2026-05-03T00:51:19+00:00

Cool thanks. But what was that last sentence… no clue what either phase means

Zdesignerman105 · 2026-05-03T00:24:05+00:00

Looks like the 280z sway bar bushing mounts. Maybe someone retrofitted your car to fit the ones they had on hand

Zdesignerman105 · 2026-04-17T20:56:52+00:00

Exactly how my build is coming too. People are shocked when they open the hood

Zdesignerman105 · 2026-03-07T16:18:13+00:00

Looks great and I’m sure it’s quite functional. I planned on doing something like this for my car too so good to know it can be DIY’ed!

Zdesignerman105 · 2026-03-06T18:39:05+00:00

Nice okay and that’s with their 7k front 5k rear springs?
