I've been building this buggy for past year and a half and have a build thread on Pirate. Thought I'd share it here and catch up NC4x4 friends...

SBC 350 (Howell TBI)
42's FORD Dana 60 14b full floater
700r4
Stak 3.75

East Coast Gear Supply made me flexible DOT approved brake lines. I dropped off the buggy... they measured and crimped. They turned out great!
