Budget Buggy Makeover

[5onrocks]

Picked up a sami based buggy monday. Changeing a few things....adding my winch, seats, harnesses. Cutting up a bar or two here and there and adding a few back. I will wheel it for a few months and take it down to the frame this winter and redo all tube work.

Did a little work today. I'm going to leave the main cage alone and add here and there. This thing will flex pretty good....44" under the tire with a few more inches to go.

Besides working out a few bugs and makeing a belly pan it's done untill this winter when it will be redone from the frame rails up. The rear is all welded up, rear winch mounted, stinger fabbed, and lights installed. It worked great at Callalantee this weekend.

Going to go to stiffer coils or keep them as is?

No problem man, anytime

Sam and I are going to try a little more nitrogen at all four corners first, if that doesn't work then the stiffer coils. It crawls so well I don't really want to stiffen it up too much.

Wheeled the piss out of it at the farm! Changed the 110# lower springs to 150# and worked like a champ. Now it's 80# over 150# with no bottoming out. Still need a little more nitrogen in the rear shocks and a clutch in the near future!

I'm glad that 150 helped out that much.

I was surprised it helped that much....The little stops for the dual rate are still on the way. Let me know when you pick up that nitrogen tank. Thanks for your help!
