No problem! Should have even more as the last week crunch begins. Sorry if we post too much.

You can't post too much :beer:

I am sure you guys are slammed, but when you get a second, run back through the thread and pick up some of the questions if you can. I think there is a lot of interest in this build. (Edited, see below)

Who makes that skylight/roof vent you have there?

I'm loving every post. I'm curious if you did a pro/con list against starting with a Stewart & Stevenson/Brazo's truck vs the NPR? I ask because I'm keenly interested in the S&S truck, Cat engine, Allsion trans, CTIS as a complete package off the assembly line.

More details on the table please

With the 6L90 being a GM transmission, did you consider pulling parts from a Silverado and making it column shift? Same goes for moving the parking brake to the floor. It would free up lots of space in the center console for a middle passenger, cooler, etc.

Did you use a bell crank of some sort and cross over steering, thereby eliminating the factory push-pull setup?

Regarding that radio, and the touch screen - have you used that model in any of your builds so far?

Any powerplant mods? You have plans to hit any shows? What's the final plan for it?

So do the NPRs not have all the "modern" systems which typically require work arounds - such as ABS brake sensors, stability control programming, transmission slip sensing etc?

Have you done any off road testing or suspension tuning yet? A previous post mentioned a nice ride, just curious if you guys were tuning in house or if King was assisting, since there are no off the shelf applications for King shocks for an NPR

How are you going for front wheel arch clearance? My FG runs 41" XZLs and while I have full turning ability, they still rub on flex/

When we get back from SEMA I'll make sure to answer all questions that were answered. Its been a little hectic around here with Bond and the rest of the team have been working non stop to get Zilla done for the show.

Thank you for all the questions its been a pleasure to share what we've been working on with all of you!

KC HiLiTES 2" Cyclone LEDs mounted underneath Rebelzilla. We've mounted cameras underneath to view suspension flex and the lights will help for with our night time adventures. We'll have some better photos of this the closer we get to The vehicle leaving for Vegas.

Looks great! Want to see more!

Can you provide who makes the clamps you used on the roof cross bars?



Thanks ~

Our Teaser photo that we released on Friday! KC HiLiTES used this and another variation for their vendor email blast of SEMA. We were pretty excited as you could imagine. However as promised you guys will get the first look of Rebelzilla in her SEMA skin and as well in the decal layout that she will wear going forward. SEMA wouldn't allow Zilla inside Central hall without covering up our original decal layout. Our logo was too big.

Here's Rebelzilla in her official SEMA KC HiLiTES livery right before she headed off to Las Vegas
