Just AWESOME!!

ridered3 · 12-26-2011, 07:03 PM

Really liking the dash lines!

SRT JK · 12-26-2011, 07:53 PM

Nice work!

A little F.Y.I. Be careful using those seats. They don't hold-up very well in hard impacts or rolls. I had a set that the threaded inserts pulled through & the seat was loose in the back of the Jeep with me still in it. I started out as the driver.

Then what were the seat belts attached to?

Anyway, bad ass build! one of the best i've seen!

Anyone know where to find the lowest price ori's? I need 2 more to finish out the front. Looking for 14" or 16".

72blazer · 12-30-2011, 08:54 AM

Damn

buggy...definitely belongs in General 4x4

moprr71 · 12-30-2011, 09:33 AM

Really nice.

ChadPA · 12-31-2011, 08:37 AM

Got the ORI struts ordered. dynamixjk got me a smokin' deal. I look forward to working with him to get them dialed in when this thing is finished.

ChadPA · 12-31-2011, 05:08 PM

Tore it down to weld.

linked&bobbed_S10 · 12-31-2011, 05:39 PM

Wow! That's so pimp!

ChadPA · 01-15-2012, 02:43 PM

Got the chassis welded up, installed flex plate and adapter, installed new 2500 rpm stall torque converter, slid motor/trans back in place, got the front struts in place. Went with 16" struts on all 4 corners. Flex the suspension out by charing one side then the other. Mounted most of the body tabs. Painted the lower part of the frame.

I'm 5'8", buggy is 73" to top of frame, 25" to belly skid, 8" of up travel at all 4 corners.
I might drop it down another 2" or so, haven't decided yet.

Got the LED light mocked up. Made it removable so it will only be on the buggy when I need it (trips to the sand/etc.)

linked&bobbed_S10 · 01-15-2012, 03:16 PM

Wow! I'm so jealous!

so you should be done in about a week or two!

This is an awesome build, and so close to home!

Do you have a finish goal in mind? Shake down run for it?

ChadPA · 01-15-2012, 03:35 PM

Thanks, The earliest it could possibly be done would be for the Pirates of the South Central Meet-n-Greet in April, but that would really be pushing it. Kind of all depends on how much time I get to work on it... I can't wait!

linked&bobbed_S10 · 01-15-2012, 04:10 PM

well i would love to see it on Gobbler's Knob that weekend!

I hope that you can make that run!

Beat95YJ · 01-15-2012, 04:19 PM

What did you do to the trans to make it live?

Also are you worried about the 60 rear?

Ditch the crap seats, at least where your children are.

Dang you got me worried about my stock TH350 and junk yard rear D60, what the heck its been on the trails 6 years now.
I guess I need to try some good seats I have the crap ones now, no complaints.

ChadPA
See Ya on Gobbler"s Knob, Ol Geezer Style!

Beat95YJ · 01-15-2012, 08:55 PM

I run a built th350 in my camaro behind a zz3, and it is a struggle. A ls6 should destroy a th350.

ChadPA · 01-18-2012, 09:23 AM

The sky is falling... at least it sounds like it is out in California
