Thanks for the compliments. I am stoked to get this build going. I need to have something from my ZJ on there. Plus it would be cool to make out to GSW one of these days!

[Pearce]

Man i like this. Looking forward to seeing it finished.

[chadjans]

A 6.0l is nice but not neccessary.

[bnboffroad]

if you dont mind me asking how much did you give for the bute

[Tommy]

A 6.0l is nice but not neccessary.

Probably not necessary as I have a prefectly good 4.3 that it came with. However i think it would be cool and something about 400 hp in something like this is going to be bitchin...

I forgot to mention I will be running 16" saw on all four corners, with 16" triple bypasses in the rear.

My left nut. (Have two of them, only need one. Already have kids, so I am good.) And a whole shit load of honey do's....

[spykosshow]

I just JIMP'ed.

[Tommy]

Picking up the 6.0 Vortec/4l80e next weekend. If I get my ZJ out of the garage I will be on my way to getting this build started.

[ATL ZJ]

Very nice. How many miles on it? Have you decided where you're sending the computer for flash/tuning yet?

[Tommy]

I have access to a flash tuner. may do it myself. We will see. 58,000 miles. Not bad.

[Jeeperoni91]

oh boy

[Brad S]

I demand an update!

[Kraqa]

A 6.0l is nice but not neccessary.

i disagreee.

sometime you just need some JAM. and the 4.3 just doesn't cut it.

[Tommy]

Been busy paying the bills. Work has kept me busy and out of the garage. Plus it was 115 degree's this weekend. Laughlin casino's and a bunch of Coors Light sounded better than working on my rig. I needed to get some proper lights in my garage, so I can work at night. That is done. Now it rivals the sun. j/k.

Starting to tear down the chassis a bit this week. A bunch of bars will be coming out up front to fit the 6.0, and the rear will most likely be cut off completely. My drivetrain is long and I need to stretch my wheel base to fit. Shooting for around 110", low and long.

Tommy

[Kraqa]

you might want to rethingk the low and long.

i was 21" belly with 109" WB and even with the rear steer the thing was not much more nimble then the previouse Kraq-Rock buggy.

i woudl not go more then 106" with a buggy.

my rear drive shaft is only 20" long. 1410 gold seal offset u-joints give it enough angle for my 14" CO's. thats including the pumkin being offset to the side by 7"

[Cue-Ball]

Get on it man!!!
