i think he means that most tube buggies are pretty high end.
which is why this one is so cool. It can do practically any trail in katemcy, where as there have been $30+ grand buggies that have been denied on simpler stuff.
I'd roll it

hell, it gets better than that, because it has square driveshafts front and rear. There is alot of stuff on the buggy that goes against conventional thinking. For example, square driveshafts, leaf springs all around, the dual track bar setup in the rear that supposedly will not work because it causes binding, yet works beautifully and flexes like crazyOriginally Posted by afroman006

speaking of drivehsafts, do you still want that dual cv I had. Its up here at the house. Make me an offer
Depending on a potential axle sale this afternoon, $50 for the dual CV one? What size square tube did you make your shafts out of?

its just standard receiver hitch tubing. How about $75 for the dual cv one?
I'm already living off of cup-o-noodles and tuna salad this month after gettin reamed out for books. $50 is all I can swing.

did you get another fan?

I'm gonna try building a shroud first, and see if thats enough. I checked, and the fan is rated for around 1000cfm, so I think its enough.
the shroud will help alot. you might be able to get away with using the stock shroud for the mechanical fans out of a Jeep cherokee. I know they will be easy to find in a junkyard too. I think the hole is the same diameter as your fan,
you would just have to figure out a way to mount the fan to the shroud, instead of the radiator
Also I think the radiator shroud is about the same size as your radiator.

well in the interest of staying somewhat dry and warm at clayton, I went and picked up some aluminum sheet today and went to work. So far all I've accomplished is getting the hood mounted, but this was the hardest job as it required multiple notches and holes. Right now I just have some bolts to hold it on, but may go to some hood pins when time allows.
