The Slovak in me loves a bit of pilsener jerkel, at least that is what I call it after a few.

I missed out on a set of dually axles for my toyota pickmeup a few months ago, I just couldn't imagine how funny it would be to say, "hell yeah I got a dually flatbed" then show up in my small truck. The irony is deep.

I've seen lots of Toyota duallys, some stock some custom.

On a side note, what is this paint scheme called?

I'd like to lower my 95 Dodge 2wd dually, but everything I've seen is either really expensive or ruins it for towing. Air ride technologies has a great kit for the rear, but it's over 1500 alone.

In reply to Nitroracer:

IIRC the eyes and teeth are referred to as "shark's mouth" -- at least that's what a little google-fu says.

Apparently dates all the way back to WWI aircraft.

Yep, that's the paintwork the Flying Tigers used in WWII.

i think those are the US Army Air Force pilots that were fighting Japan in China before Pearl Harbor, and the artwork was only on the planes flew by those pilots that had served in China even after we had "officially" entered the war.

but i still say slammed dualies are just wrong in so many ways- but like i said in my first post, not my truck, not my money, not my business but i am entitled to my opinion.
