Time for some updates. I took a few days over the last couple of weeks to make all the little parts that would allow us to finish off the suspension. This weekend I took Friday off so we could spend two days on it in hopes of knocking it out and finishing all the work we would need to do up on the fabrication table. It went smoothly and we not only got the suspension knocked out but mounted the drivers seat, steering ram and my new to me Creepy Crawlers. Check out the pics. Todd and I have about 7 days total in this build so far. Alot of the big hurdles are past but I know the real work begins now.







58"s under the front tire


60"s under the rear tire


Ian and Todd's buggies


We started on his in early December and mine just after Christmas. I hope the rest of the project goes as smoothly.

As it sits I ended up at 114" wheelbase, 21" belly height and 66.5" roof height. The shocks are 17" Bilsteins set at roughly 8"s of uptravel.
