    I was wondering if anyone has Matt Walraths number? Please let me know thanks. He is the guy who built the 2 or 3 badass chevys and the badass 4wd exploder.

    Correct. He's a really good guy, down to earth, just give him a call, he'll invite you over to see his work.

    So how did Matt get his fab experience? Did he ever work at a high end shop, or is he just gifted? Either way his work is the cleanest and most intricate i have ever seen.

    You are thinking of two completely different trucks. Matt built two chevys, or atleast two that were followed closely on another forum. One was a fully built, linked, and caged Silverado (the red one), the owner is a member of the forum.

    The Second Silverado is a leaf spring version, with a very intricate rear cage design(pictured above).

    I'm pretty sure this is all his work.. The first three of a chevy and the last of an explorer.

    Check to see if his number posted at the beginning of the thread works. I bought some tires off of him a couple yrs. ago & he was really cool & showed me what he had going on & stuff.

    ...but he just works out of a garage at a house, so i don't think anyone's just going to tell you where he lives, ya know?
