I was looking a bit closer and noticed the wide bolt pattern in the rear. I hope the rig is not IRS. Im kinda fond of solid axle including a sway bar you can adjust and disconnect in cab. I think I noticed in another sneak peak photo a heim joint hanging from the rear end indicating a possible solid axle. And a swaybar setup under the rig just under the letter R in TIRES beneath the truck. If you look harder, you can see the cnc arm and the small heim end which could possibly bolt to the outside of the rear truck arm.

Floats Like A Butterfly
Stings Like a Bee...
The totally Llama proof
Gordini!

Any news on 305 Bumper stickers this year?
The family truckster let the smoke out 9-11-13 & last years sticker followed it to the boneyard.

I must have missed a post somewhere. The solid rear with an estimated 27" is doable for sure as well as a sway bar. I have a new phone and getting use to it. Maybe I lost some Gordini spec. info. All this could be for nothing until we get the full spec sheet on this.

I noticed the passenger door glass when the pic was first posted but I figured it was just like that to vent out whatever air may get under that part of the body.

Ha, just looked up the 2006 Jim Beam Dakar Hummer Specs. That one had a wheel base longer then a 50s Fleetwood Limo! Its actually nice seeing the evolution that has taken place with Rgs Dakar Hummer. The new one is for sure the result of 7+ year Dakar R&D!

theres a pic on somewhere of rg looking at chicherit (misspelled) rear suspension pretty hard last year. That may give us a clue.
looks nice from every angle except head on imo. rear wing land rover sportish.

Got it Mike. Ya right, those five bolts is the axle shaft flange.
