Well guys it is time to start on my buggy build RANCID DIESEL. It has been long awaited. well the plans are.

-5ton top-loader axles hydro steering

-81 inch r1 tractor tires 42inch rims with custom laser cut centers, simulated beadlock

- 5"x2"x 1/4 rectangular tubing for the frame (18')

- 4 linked haven't decided on springs (coil-overs) (coil springs) (decided against airbags)

- Motor options haven't decided, i have (DT466 with Allison auto) (5.9 cummins don't have a tranny so not sure what tranny to mate it to)

- SCS 4wd case 12" drop

- it will be a center console with 5 seats and bench seating all the way around

So what do yall think about my motor options? any input or recommendations are appreciated??

i will be taking as many pics as i can along the way to keep yall updated

here are the first pics getting the axles into shape they are going out to sandblast on thursday.
