[jeepeater2003]

is he going to have any wheel speed with a 4BT and 19:1 gear ratio in the axles?

 

[firetoy]

Not a ton but It will crawl like crazy.

Very Nice work!

 

[whitneyj]

I don't think the words slow and progress should ever be in the same sentence with you. Looks good man, glad to see you got your shop up.

How fast will you be turning the 4bt?


At 2700, you're not even breaking 18mph.......

even if you spin it up to 4k, you're only looking at ~26 mph.

Diesel . . . Super low Gearing . . . th400 automatic tranny . . . Sounds like a perfect grudge pullin buggy to me . . .


In all seriousness I think the look is gonna be pretty cool :Rockon:

 

[firetoy]

3000 governer spring. also we might get a 13.1 ring pinion for it. also thought about a an overdrive unit.

 

[whitneyj]

[firetoy]

I'd love to see this!! Even just as a mock up. Might try it, I have 35's and a set of 29's.

How about this??? 31s in front and 46 inchers in the back.

I was putting the 31s back on so that I could get it out of my garage and take it to FireToy (Tim Odell), so that he can do the tube work....

 

[firetoy]

i think it looks cool like that. i might order a set of 31's baja claws for it. then i'll do the tube work to match.

 

[Reid]

nice style.
