I have to get the propane on and my high steer done before I start thinking about more mods. I dont think that it will be complete until sometime next year. I need to find a ton of parts to finish it up and make it drivable. I have the IFS box and relocation bracket to for high steer just need high steer. For now I am going to take it off my 4runner until I get a new gas tank for it.

I took the buggy out today with my family and a couple of buddies. I had a great day and met a lot of new RME members. Myself and my family had a blast with some new great friends and new buggy. I didn't break anything but realized I am a long way from being done. I need to get my propane kit, high steer, and wheel spacers. I need to do some more welding and cut all my panels. I drove it all day in 4 low only shifting the crawl box because who ever built the t-case never cut off the shift linkage. I am going to need new seals in the front end, so spool will be done at same time.

I got the front bumper almost done.

Glad the maiden voyage went well. The front end tubing work looks good and beefy and fenders are nice and high-lined.

I finished painting the front and took a different angle pic. I am not sure about the stinger!!! What do you all think? Kick it or keep it

 

[sabatoa1]

This is the new stinger its a lot shorter. I like it better but think its still a little tall, but it is as short as I can get it.

I should have my 4runner up and running soon picked up a new gas tank w/fuel pump, sender and guard, shifter boots, console boots, right and left tail lights, and front bumper w/ signals for $75 today. I am having him pull the back bumper for $20 more but it has a couple dents in it.

I got to work on the buggy last night for a min. I ripped apart my ifs steering box and tapped it for hydro assist. I will have the the box reassembled tonight with more pics of process.

from the stickers it looks like it was owned by a ski bum. they love to recycle good job. Almost my whole buggy is recycled and that is why I am half proud of it. awesome project.

I put my 4runner back together yesterday and today. I started takeing off parts and switching to the buggy. I put my 1/4 driveline on the buggy and the balanced one on the 4runner. The 4runner drives as smooth as glass again no vibs or shakes. I have not put the buggy back together yet due to me ripping apart my t-case to cut off the shift fork. I am also going to put my square DL up front just didn't get to it. So on the 4runner fixed gas tank with new drain plug seal, new front right fender, new front bumper, new tail lights, new center console and shifter boots, new rear t-case shifter boot, and new optima battery. It is somewhat cleaned up and running good again, turning it back into my DD/ winter wheeler.
