got any updates for the crowd?

Yea butthole ya got your headers started yet?

No sorry guys.

I did buy all my header parts and i tried to make a die to press out my own collectors and it fail. I'll i make it work later. I got the idea from randy slawson from bomber fabrication.http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/8567128-post7.html he has more taper on his die and must of had better tubing. Mine kept splitting the tube even with heat and lube.

Im thinking im going to cut the t case mounts free and move the drive train around and get a F body pan to lower the engine before i fab the headers. I want to make a new engine skid that will hold the radiator and tie into the rear end better.

Right now it sitting outside in the snow with a tarp over it while a fab bumpers and roll cage for a 4 seat razor. I probable wont make much progress as im not planning on spending any money on it till after KOH.

Motor sits much lower. Made an aluminum engine cover and started routing exhaust.

Yay buggy progress! Found me an 42s yet? Gonna dimple that shield?


I stopped looking for tires the day i bought my 42's. I dont want to find a better deal or different tires. I will use these sx's till they are dead just like all my other tires.

I think i put a graphic sticker on it of cut out some raised alum lettering.

The buggy is currently getting the axles stuffed with gears by a friend that owes me some favors. 5.38s welded rear, cheap durasolid spool up front.
