    Could you do this mod to the Blue collar or similar mix of the d up mod and this combined I got 54s on the d series with portal axels and the d up 5 inch body lift.

    There are options for the alternate 4 speed auto to change the torque converter and shift style (Standard Auto, Sport Auto and Fully manualised), it also allows for a transmission brake to build boost at a stand still, (can be useful at a hill climb with the boosted 4 cylinder)
    Many people prefer automatic style gearboxes for heavy offroad driving as they allow you to stop without the use of a clutch, therefore minimizing the risk of stalling and making precise maneuvers a lot easier to complete.
    I could possibly include manual and automatic versions in future updates.

    I might have a look at it tonight and chuck something together, it all depends on how close the chassis on the "Blue collar" is to the chassis on the D15, hopefully they are pretty similar and all goes together pretty nice....
    I wont be building an exo cage or anything new for the Blue Collar at the moment, I have heaps to finish on the D15 and Hopper mods, not to mention a few others that I really need to update.

    I would love to finish this off with a setup for each of the original D15 variants but I'm just concentrating on getting the base model sorted out first... I started the hopper project with too many wheelbase variants and it made my life a nightmare of copying and pasting code over 9 different files for almost every little change made to the jbeam.

    Cheers mate, hopefully is lives up to your expectations. It reminds me of the old "true offroad d series" mod from years gone by too.
    --- Post updated ---
    Hmmm thats really odd, I'll look into what the cause is but I have a feeling that I'll be able to remedy it tonight by renaming a few parts in the 3d model.
    I didnt take into consideration that the pickup uses common files to share parts with the Roamer and I think it is sharing the 3d model with everything and over writing the original mesh for the Barstow.

    It would be pretty cool to have a proper overlanding truck, I'd say go for it!

    The only bad thing about this mod is that there is not a map aggressive enough to challenge this truck.
