Formula Toy 522

Well, after The Farm, I realised I needed something to help with the hopping on the rocks. I hopped so bad on Bee's Nest I bent a rear wheel from one of the landings. So.... I went to Bud from Budbuilt and got a few parts...

I started with one of his short Trac Bars, a couple of heims, and some beefy shock brackets and made some mounts on the axle. Up front I just used a short shackle to allow front/back spring movement so there won't be any binding. I still need to adjust on it a bit, as my shackle angle isn't good, but it seems to work pretty good and doesn't limit my travel any.

PICS!!

I like this thing more every time I see it. Nice build.....

You need to bring it to the Flats end of September for our open invite......
 
Well it's been a while since I've posted anything on my build, and I've changed a few things...

I ditched the EFI on the buggy. It ran great, but there was just too much going on under the dash and around the motor with wiring, so I wanted to simplify everything. I took the plunge and went with a GotPropane kit that I traded for. It's installed and runs great! I definitely have to tune on it a bit, but I can tell i'll be really happy with it. I just need to get another tank.

PICS!!

Removed the EFI

All the things I no longer have to worry about

Cleaned up the motor a bit and painted it since I was this far down

Fits perfectly with plenty of room around the tank (hard to see, but there's room...).
