Peterson's 4x4 and Offroad Magazine hosts an annual gathering called the Ultimate Adventure. It's a week of mayhem on impossible trails and tough off-road parks. Participating vehicles are highly modified, but have to be road legal, and driven between venues. No trailer queens allowed.
This year, Peterson's is building a Ford F150 with V6 EcoBoost motor for the Ultimate Adventure. Since the F150 uses independent front suspension, Peterson's is creating a one-off IFS that will be tough enough to handle 40 inch tires, diff lockers, and provide enough articulation to deal with extreme obstacles.
The IFS project is described here
