Thats not articulation...that beast was doing the splits cool find Rob

That thing seems like it would take the fun out of will I make it. But at the same time opens up a whole new realm of will it fit and where to go next.

This video has been popping up everywhere I go lately. The more I watch it, the more I like it.

here are a few more build details that someone posted on my dodge dakota site..

ams hydraulic Chain-drive 4x4, about 7 feet of up OR down motion on each tire: specs below Engine is a fuel injected Ford 5.0 V8 out of a '93 cobra mustang, c4 transmission and t-case out of an early bronco. 9" w/ 5.38 gears and ARB air locker mounted in the center (below driver) running chain gears on the ends where the swing arms pivot. Swing arms are hydraulically controlled individually or together, and there is coil spring and shock suspension as well. large chains running inside the swing arms turn hummer gear reduction (2:1) hubs at each wheel. tires are 39.5". The steering is linked through the swing arms as well and the steering box is mounted just in front of the axle below the driver. body construction is steel tubing (mostly DOM) and the total weight is 5900 LB

My only question is.... Why isn't the steering hydraulic? I would imagine steering linkages through those arms would be a bit of a pain / unreliable.
