Light weight Toyota buggy build

[toyota1]

I'm planning to be around 107. I wanna have the motor set back like yours is but I'm not sure if I'll be able to keep dual cases.

Ya I went with the 4.7 twinstick case 23 spline case just for strength

As a jeep guy who loves big motors all i can say is...
Damn nice looking Yota crawler!
Chris is my friend and excellent fabricator.
Even though he thinks Nancy Pelosi is hot.
Just saying....

All I have to say is, make the passenger seat is FAT BOY PROOF.... Important cargo is riding when he breaks his buggy....just saying

Thanks guys. When we were still trying to use the original chassis as a base for the build the wheelbase was gonna be in the 95-97 inch range but since we ended up starting from scratch it's now looking more like 105 ish with all the weight between the axles. I expect this thing to be pretty dang stable.

This thing became a full roller today but..... I forgot to take any pictures. Sorry I was playing with my new welder and god a little side tracked lol.

I'm digging this hood. Obviously it'd be shaped slightly different and wouldn't have built in headlights but but I think I may go for this look. What do you guys think?

 

[ORV design and fab]

I dig it. I like the lines. Not super crazy but slicker than a Sami hood.

How much....

Just kidding....but everything is forsale
