This isn't being built for show like most of the 4 linked buggys out there. We are gonna find the places it won't go. And it will see a little air time. We are running 18" FOA 2.5 resi coilovers.

That sounds like a really bad idea to jump a buggy, as far as the 84's are you talking about 35.5's? If so you better have a looooooot of a$$ to get the mothers spinning, much less get air.

We were gonna go with 35.5 but they are so damn heavy! We are going with a 520/85r46. About air time. It will be just the driver. Lol once it's done it will go through rigorous testing before the first mud bog.

thanks for all the compliments guys! a few things have changed along the way nothing major though. we are switching to 3.0 Foa (18" travel) resi coilovers the are going to be powdercoated hugger orange. the paint for the buggy will be white with orange pearl and hugger orange accents. well here are just some pics and videos to enjoy went up to the cousins shop.
