On one of my long trips to an offroad event with a teammate, I laid down a very expensive shopping list of everything I wanted in a buggy. I got a phone call from him one day telling me to check the link in my email. We took a day off from work, we hooked up the trailer, and made a trip down to Mississippi from Maryland.
I picked up this 2009 built buggy in 2010 with the intentions of it being an all purpose buggy. The triathlon of buggies. Trailride, race, crawl.....back to back.....every weekend I wanted. It replaced my Zook buggy that I beat on a little too hard.
That was the hardcore wheeler to go with my built up 95 ZJ family wheeler.
As always with something that you built or bought, there were some things that I wanted to change.
I wanted to put a thread together just to show some of the work that I did, had done, am doing, or want to have done. Get opinions on options to change or fix things. Also, to highlight the people and products that have helped me get the truck where I wanted it to be. Sort of a rebuild thread with updates and thank yous.
