Soooo....I may be buying a buggy frame for wheeling :yay:

Found a good Truggy frame based off of a Toyota truck frame for a smoking price locally to toss my axles under and a new engine into.

I guess we will see on Monday though

 

A shot of the truggy in action under the previous owner

 

that looks like a blast.

 

Watch those fingers.

 

It is...I am kinda giving up on the Jeep annd scavenging it for parts because its just too big for the trails around here. Besides the cost of building a cage in the Jeep is going to be about the same cost as just buying this frame, then all I have to do is get the motor, tranny and 4 link setup and I am rolling out in no time.

 

Why a glass wind shield?

 

Because plexi scratches and your vision suffers in direct light even without any scratches. Besides if it rolls and I break the glasss I will just pick up another Toy window for cheap or run the summer without a window...either way its no big deal.

 

True. So, mud, rock crawling, both?

 

I don't do mud unless I come acrosss it on a trail run, it's too much work to have to drain the axle tubes and change the gear oil as well as the transfer cases and transmission fluid.

I will be building this thing mainly for rock crawl and trail running.

 

Your right about the extra work with mud. Rock crawling is funner and takes a lot more skill. Good luck with your project.
