My question is what about the rest of the powertrain? Can the stock transmission, transfer case and rear axle handle the extra 300 hp? I’m assuming a true TRX has them all upgraded. Honestly don’t know for sure so chime in if you can answer that.

Holy crap that guy did like a complete conversion.
That's crazy as hell.
He sure did. Might as well have bought a TRX! It looks like you have to be a verified bidder to even as the seller a question.

It says parts are from a TRX donor truck. I’m guessing he got it for a fairly decent price. Way cheaper than buying everything new from the factory.

I completely missed that. Thanks for the follow up.
