That should be the official name of that chassis. :beer:

I reallly like that desighn. How low in the chassis is the moter setting? Anything going to be above the hood line? That buggy is wicked cool.

sweet rig:D

Whats the deal on the winch? 4700 lbs :confused:

hmmmmmmmmmm...

pictures look better than usual.....:confused: what happened:D

lookin good man......

:cool:

toy axles with chrome molly axles a ctm joints
is that chome molly inners and CTM joint? Toy font right?
Is this like the redline setup?

think the toys will stand up to the 39's? No not the way he drives



That should be the official name of that chassis. *BARN CHASSIS*



Whats the deal on the winch? 4700 lbs That chassis is small. I have one in my glove box.


pictures look better than usual..... what happened? He found the flash button on the camera
:flipoff2: :flipoff2:

Looks great, looks like we should be done about the same time.

Dan

yup i found some new buttons on the soney look out fred williams i can take pics to:flipoff2:
well if the toy axles cant handle the heat i have the cure four wheel steer 60's:D i hope the toys will live i have 14" of ground clerance with this set up.


toy axle kit... WARN BIRFIELD ELIMINATOR. new inners and outers chrome molly with ctm joints. comes with a chrome molly spindle and chrome molley wheel hub thats houses 60 bearings and hubs i have a few spairs around so we will see how it does.

4700lbs winch and a 3500 lbs buggy ?? i think it should work besides all its for is to help dan dibble winch his spair tire off his roof:flipoff2: :flipoff2:

the motor sits low in the chassis for a LCOG the radiator will stick up to the mount you can see in the pic the motor is lower than the radiator by an inch we will still have good visability over the hood and for sure around the side panels on the hood eria.;)

2;29 am gotta go back to work just did the 4to1 and the big output and now we are installing the drive train pics in the AM OR moorning,

You obviously get payed hourly, get a move on it. Btw don't put 454 in class a motor homes like I just finished today. you will go nuts. I just converted a 454 tbi motor into a carbed motor:eek: then put her in........if you don't see me post for a few days I'm at the happy hospital. I'm gettin sick just thinking about it.

That is one of the nicest buggys ive ever seen. NICE work , and cant wait to see action shots!

again thank you all very much;)

now if only the painter would finish my hood and dash panels i would be cookin.painters are almost as slow as chassis builders:D

is it done yet...is it done yet.....is it done yet :D

Got a guesstimate on the final weight of this thing?

looks great

I give it 3 trips with Frankie drivig it before he eats up the Toy axles!

Sweet buggy Frankie, I live it!

I still think it needs an LT-1...there is no weigh diff between it and that 4.3 is it?

Sweet looking ride Frankie. I agree - I like your chassis the best of the Buggies so far!

So, how do you like the IROK's at first glance? They should work well in places like Tellico and Paragon. I have a set here in Missour'ah and they work well in the trails around here. If I could just keep from bouncing off trees....:D

I think they will work with your Toyota axles - better than any 40" tire on the market - Why you say? They are lighter Fo Sho!

well no sleep and still going:D

:p

:smokin:

if we have toy problems i will build my own four wheel steer 60's but at 14" of ground clearnce i would like to keep the toys. maybe a allpro toy 60 allpro you listening got a deal for a redneck maybe a old rusty crusty axles laying around:D

looking good frankie thats some damn killer work for not being able to see in the shop ;) ..but was wondering,i am starting to plan out my tube chasis that i will be building here shortly and was wondering something. on your windshield,you have the 2 bars comming down in the middle and on some i only see 1..besides being stronger,is there any other reasons for that? i understand that if its for strength ,that should be enough said,but it seems that it would block some of your view or is it no biggie and you get used to it and not even know its there?

also trying to figure out a good way to mount the pedals,gonna post pics of yours when done?

TIA


BTW- sent ya a PM

after a few minutes you wouldnt even notice them anymore.

i was going to use 1.5" tubing in there but all i had when i wonted to fix it was 1.3/4" DOM so thats what we used to be honest.

i will take a pic of the pedals later today if i dont passout:emb4:

hey dan sorry fpr passin out on ya i couldnt keep my eyes open any longer.
thanks for toteling out my maxxis:flipoff2:

Hey Frankie,

I read in another post that you were ordering the 17 inch IROKS for this buggy?

Did you go with 15's or 17's? And what width rim and backspacing did you end up going with?

(Not sure if you sig is buisness or buggy related)

Thanks,
Ryan

i was using the 17" trail readys but i sold them in favor of my bead locks so i went back to 15" i just dont have the 17" locks at this time but the trail readys were super nice wheels.

i am using 15x10 3and 3/4 b.s. 32 BOLT. $150.00 EACH RAW NO PAINT.

Frankie,
A really nice rig, looks great! Maybe I should have stayed in B'ham after college for the wheeling!
-Luke

Hey, where does the beer cooler and gun rack go? If I know you there will be guns involved. BTW, I think I saw the mount for the night vision googles.

Looks great Frankie. I can't wait to see it. I may be up there later this week.

we like a little wiring left and rear brake calipers front brake lines and rear brake lines and a few small parts soon we will be testing.
these buggys get slower toward the end.

and the painter has my hood and a few parts to finish up and he got into a shoot out(believe it or not)tonight so i dont know whats up now ??? the police have his place shut down so i may have to build a new hood ??

wire wire wire every where this is taking to long.:D

;)

:p

You know you are a redneck if...............................
























You can wire your whole buggy without removing the Marlboro from your lips :laughing:

Looking awesome Frankie!!

So did you get your hood back yet? The bullit holes should help to lighten the rig a little more:D Keep the pics coming.

That looks Great!

Nice Job....................:beer:

the hood should be done by now ???

well its almost crank time i got the coils in today i will take some pics after dinner.

siiik buggy!

hurry up and come to australia and build me one!

I have got 50,000 sheep here with your name on them :eek: :flipoff2: all the fun you can handle :flipoff2:

"I have no hood cause of the shoot up" :D

on your steering setup, i seen ya said that Station hooked ya up on hydro assist. but that was about all i seen. what im wondering is,what type of box are you using that is mounted on that steering plate where the dash would go,then just a small shaft to the steering wheel? also, is there a bearing or something in that steering plate to keep the shaft somewhat inline? ( never got into the steering guru tech too much to know ;) )

for someone to seem like they barely sleep,you do some damn good work.seems the les sleep ya have,the better ya get :p

thats a orbitral valve it takes the place of the steering box and directs fluid VIA steering motion to the port for that direction.
mucho better than a box and linkage.no bumpsteer and turns real easy. you also get to keep your thumbs intact during a roll over.
if you realy wona get nitty gritty ask staion he loves to talk hydro:D

and thanks for the nice stuff;)

Ok Impressions??????

Fawker

VERY NICE!!!

Sorry, I don't feel like going through and re-reading the entire thread....are you running a doubler?? If not, why two sets of twin sticks?? Forgive my ignorance:flipoff2:

Edit: do the flexlines for the rear brakelines just dangling there bother anyone else?? Seems like a stick/log could just jump up and rip 'em out pretty easy, and it doesn't look like there's much around to zip tie them too. Maybe the DS, but that wouldn't work :flipoff2: :D :flipoff2:

Originally posted by Dan Dibble

Fawker very stable on off camber and the 4.3 is just perfect for the weight of the buggy it will even bark 3rd gear!!

DOH, dunno why you would have twin sticks for a gear reduction box, I'm not thinking straight :rolleyes:

BTW, you forgot to paint your links, and would ya comment on the brakelines?? They're really bothering me :flipoff2:

Oh, and one more thing, what kind of seats are those?? They look really comfy:cool:

about the brake lines thay are mounted at the link towers and they are not long enogh so we will be back in there with somnthing ??
superseets for a jeep i love them things.
what about the hibusa mufflers no comments
:flipoff2:

Since we seem to be having a one on one conversation, I will keep going :flipoff2:

Do you have a better idea on the weight now that it's close to being done?? I'm workin on accumulating parts for a tubed out Willy's project and am trying to get an idea of what drivetrain to run. So far it looks like a 4.3 on propane(because I have all the stuff for propane lying around, and it's cool), maybe a 3800(since I have the supercharger for it layin around as well :D Some kind of auto tranny and an Atlas II. You said the 4.3 worked well with the weight, so I'm wondering what that weight is. Thanks


































Oh yeah, the mufflers look nice! :flipoff2:

wood yard skalls say 3136 lbs:) the 4.3 is a lot better than i was expecting!! this little buggy will get it !!

the mufflers gave me all the power i needed:D

well i have been having alternator problems but we have that fixed now and we have had fuel pump problems from the low voltage so i am ordering a barry grant tomorrow $500.00 and i am done unless some one knows of a better way to fuel up a vortec.

the vortec 4.3 is doing realy good i am most pleased with it.

i will take some poser shots flexed up tomorrow and post them.
i must say that the iroks are hands down a nice highway ride:D they are so smooth and they seem to grip pretty good around the house we will go and fined the weak links this week on a test run at grey rock.

Hey Frankie

About the brake lines ... if they were a bit longer you could mount slip thim in a small flek conduit and hang it with a small spring. they would dress super nice that way... But hey lets see how they look after grey rock ;)

Dan :crybaby2:get that thing together and lets ride:massey:

Frankie,
We have a couple of trails with your name on them at Gray Rock. Hope to see you there next weekend. What day will you be arriving? I will be working most of the weekend, so look for the Gray 4Runner on 37" MTRs that resembles Shamu (the whale).

Brian the suzukie mufflers sound pretty good sounds like a maseratie:D
and thanks for the words :beer: :beer: :beer:for all;)

Nice work Frankie! Makin' me drool dude...

One quick question...What's the approx. dimension from the top of the firewall to the bottom?

I'm seriously looking at a Hendrix chassis, but it's set up for portals and as a result the fire-wall dimension looks REAL tight...Unlike yours.

Good work man!

--D

we went to gray rock today.
buggy climbs super no pics of the super nasty because we where all trying to drive we road with four seater sniper and a jeep.the jeep sorta stayed back as a suport vehical or somthing:flipoff2:

later me and DOM rolled three times extremly hard DOM had to get 17 staples in his head :eek: i walked away with a broosed hip went seni barrel rolled then endode what a ride:D

btw those green limbs are off of a tree limb we clip it the air:eek: when we landed we slide at least 10 ' on our side paint looks good now:rolleyes:

Dan [/B][/QUOTE]:flipoff2: thanks for the hex words dan:flipoff2: :flipoff2:

here ya go frankie this will be safer for you. the yellow one is driving the blue one had a dead battery and that is as far as it got. If it rolls you can roll it back over with 1 or 2 fingers.

Drivin' it like a man! all at once over forwards off what i would say looks like a cliff. buggy is ready no repairs needed just a little paint and rock rash dam thing should be totalled:D
the head rest where both down before the roll we slamed the ground like no way i can describe.i floored the gas in an atempt
to save it but that went to shit in a big way so we went over fawards at maybe 15 to 20 mph.
thanks man;)
i ant scared to roll whatever it takes to test my work:D

Frankie,
How did you do on the Mine (JB) hill? That one has been interesting to watch lately. It is over near Whiskey Springs and Tub Rock.
