From the chassis up. We take immense pride in constructing these exceptional trucks. The Dakar X represents a comprehensive build, originating from the chassis and featuring a super lifted, custom-designed wide body crafted in house. A substantial amount of labour and expertise is dedicated to its construction, characterised by meticulous attention to detail in every hand-built component. This latest iteration exemplifies the essence of an authentic off-road vehicle.

Five inches higher. This formidable truck is elevated with newly engineered suspension components, providing a height increase of approximately 5 inches over a standard truck. It is equipped with our STC engine, which has undergone a complete overhaul. Using advanced paint technology, the chassis is treated to ensure rust resistance and protection. The truck features a wide body with striking wide arches to accommodate robust wheels.

The kit. The Dakar X is equipped with Raptor protection for the chassis and bed, 15×10 inch beadlock wheels fitted with 33 inch Cooper STT Pro tyres, a body lift, a gear stick extension, colour-coordinated bull bars and custom rock sliders, and a safari roof system. It also features new shock absorbers, heavy-duty springs, a heavy-duty clutch, a custom 42 inch LED light bar on the bull bar and a side-exit stainless steel exhaust.

Inside, and signed off. The luxurious full black leather interior has been meticulously reupholstered by our specialised trim shop, and the vehicle is further enhanced with tinted windows. Countless hours have been devoted to its construction, and our proprietary ECU upgrade package significantly enhances its performance. The vehicle comes with a 12 month MOT.
