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.
