Check out this trick utilization of a tubular frame. In this particular mud boggers case, it became part of the cooling system...

I think I’ll use this idea in my up-and-coming mud drag truck project here in Illinois—and if you believe I actually have the funds to build a diesel-powered mud drag truck, you’re mistaken. HOWEVER, I am debating whether or not I should offer to buy David Kennedy’s 12-valve from him (at some point). I’d love to have a ratty looking truck up on 38½-inch Super Swamper Boggers and a 1,000 horsepower Cummins under the hood (if there even is a hood). Of course, I’d run twin turbos and spray for the best launches possible (it’ll need it against blown big block gassers).

A man can dream can’t he?

How about you? Are you as into diesels blasting through the mud as I am?

1. Hey, if a diesel can go into The Le Mans road racings series and win (and win well!) why cant it go into the mud pit and blow some gassers away! Mud truck sounds good to me man!
